Recipes | May 14, 2017
*Makes 9 Protein Balls
Ingredients:
1 cup whole pistachios
1/3 cup whole walnuts
1/3 cup whole cashews
1/2 scoop vanilla whey protein powder, 14g (max. 3grams of carbs – use a low carb protein powder)
1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut
Instructions:
- Add the pistachios, walnuts, cashews, protein powder, and cocoa powder into a blender. Blend on high until almost smooth. The consistency should be almost like a nut flour with small pieces of nuts still visible.
- Transfer the nut mixture to a medium bowl, add the coconut oil, honey, and mix until well combined.
- Place the coconut into a small bowl.
- Roll the nut mixture into small even size (about 1 tbsp each) balls and dip each one in the shredded coconut. Store the power balls in an airtight container in the fridge for a week.
