For the Coco flavor ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Designer Whey) ½ cup oat flour (oats, blended into a flour) 2 Tablespoons almond cocoa spread 1 tablespoon maple syrup ¼ cup milk For the Peanut Butter Flavor ¼ cup vanilla protein powder ½ cup oat flour ½ tablespoon maple syrup 1½ Tablespoons peanut butter 3 tablespoons milk
In a mixing bowl, mix together all ingredients for the cocoa flavor. It should be the consistency of cookie dough. If it's too dry, add a bit more milk. Then, roll the dough into about ½ tablespoon balls. Set aside. Rinse that bowl, then mix together all ingredients for the peanut butter flavor. Again, if it's too dry, add little more milk. Roll the dough into about ½ tablespoon balls. Next, take 1 cocoa ball and 1 peanut butter ball combine them by compressing them together and rolling into one larger ball. Repeat! Refrigerate until ready to eat. 3.5.3208
You can say that I just might be on a protein or energy bite kick right now. I have been trying out different flavors which led me to make a cocoa and peanut butter combo.
I learned that adding an extra boost of carbs and protein right before a workout gives you that extra bit of energy it takes to make it through a workout.
I caution you to eat these only before a workout. They are addicting. Which is why I only make them in small batches. They are no bake and come together rather quickly. Coincidentally, this batch made a baker’s dozen.
See you all at the gym.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
