Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Whey protein isolate (vanilla or chocolate flavor)
- 0.25 cup Ground flaxseed
- 0.25 cup Granulated erythritol
- 0.33 cup Almond butter
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, whey protein isolate, ground flaxseed, and granulated erythritol. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, melt the coconut oil over low heat or in the microwave until fully liquid. Be careful not to overheat.
Add almond butter to the melted coconut oil, followed by the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until the ingredients are well incorporated and smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix together until a dense dough forms. The mixture should be slightly sticky but firm enough to hold its shape.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until they are evenly dispersed throughout the dough.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture.
Place the protein bites onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set the bites.
Once set, store the Keto Almond Chocolate Protein Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
