When your sweet tooth kicks in, having delicious and healthy snacks available at your fingertips can be the perfect solution to curb those cravings and avoid a high calorie indulgence.

These Almond Butter Protein Bites are super dense, so just one bite can truly leave you satisfied – and give you just the boost you need to carry on your day.

Enjoy!

 

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup almond butter
• 2 scoops nPower Vanilla Cupcake Isolate protein powder
• 2 tbsp coconut flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (more or less, depending upon desired consistency)
• 2 tsp Truvia Nectar (one of my new finds and I love it..you can sub SF maple syrup or honey)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips
 

PREPARATION

• Put all ingredients into a bowl and mix to combine well and form a thick and sticky dough. Put the bowl in the fridge for about 20 minutes (this will make it easier to roll the balls).

• Remove bowl from fridge. Spoon a portion of the dough into your hand and roll into a ball with your palms. Repeat until you make 12 balls.

• If you are having difficulty getting the balls to stick together, add a bit more almond milk to the dough. If the dough is too sticky, try adding some coconut flour to your palms before rolling.

• Store extra bites in an airtight container in your fridge. Enjoy!
