Prep Time5 minutes
Total Time5 minutes
Course: Snack
Cuisine: American
Keyword: high protein
Servings: 10 protein balls

Ingredients 

  • ½ cup peanut butter softened in the microwave *see below
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup chocolate protein powder *see above for my favourite
  • ¼ cup peanuts chopped + more for sprinkling
  • melted chocolate *optional, for drizzling

Instructions

  • In a small microwave safe bowl add peanut butter and microwave for 15 seconds. This helps soften the peanut butter to make it runnier!
  • In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder, protein powder and chopped peanuts.
  • Roll into about 10 protein balls. Drizzle with melted chocolate and sprinkle with additional chopped peanuts (I also like to sprinkle mine with a little added cocoa powder).
  • Store in the fridge or freezer and enjoy!
