Recipe For Peanut Butter Balls

Keto Chocolate Peanut Balls

Keto Chocolate Peanut Balls

Ingredients

• 1 jar (16 ounces, or 455 g) natural peanut butter, oil and all
• 2 cups (260 g) vanilla whey protein powder
• sesame seeds (optional).
• unsweetened shredded coconut.
• sugar-free chocolate bars (optional)
• unsweetened cocoa powder.
• stevia/Splenda (optional).

Method

1. Thoroughly combine the peanut butter with the protein powder and cocoa powder
2. This should make a stiff, somewhat crumbly dough
3. Work the sweetener of your choice (if using) into the dough
4. Roll into balls about 1 inch 2 cm in diameter
5. If you like sesame seeds, you can toast them by shaking them in a dry, heavy skillet over medium heat until they start popping and jumping around the pan and then roll the balls in them while they’re still warm
6. You could roll them in coconut, if you prefer; most natural food stores carry it unsweetened and shredded
7. Again, you can toast it lightly in a dry frying pan and add a little Splenda
8. Or you could melt sugar-free chocolate bars and dip your Balls of Protein in chocolate- although it would probably be simpler to chop them up and mix them in
9. Another option is to roll them in unsweetened cocoa mixed with a little Splenda
