Michelle Bridges Recipe - No Bake Protein Energy Balls

peanut butter

🥗Healthier: almond butter

💰Cheaper: sunflower seed butter

Almond butter is lower in saturated fat and offers a different flavor profile.

honey

🥗Healthier: maple syrup

💰Cheaper: agave nectar

Maple syrup is a natural sweetener that can be used interchangeably.

chocolate chips

🥗Healthier: dark chocolate chips

💰Cheaper: cocoa nibs

Dark chocolate chips contain less sugar and more antioxidants.

coconut flakes

🥗Healthier: toasted coconut flakes

💰Cheaper: shredded coconut

Toasted coconut adds flavor without significantly changing the cost.

Start by measuring 1 cup of rolled oats and place them in a food processor.

Add 1/2 cup of shredded coconut to the food processor.

Spoon in 1/3 cup of almond butter using the same spoon for convenience.

Add 3 tablespoons of protein powder to the mixture in the food processor.

Blend the mixture until it reaches a good consistency, adding water a little at a time if needed to help it come together.

Once the mixture can be rolled into balls, take it out of the food processor.

Form the mixture into balls and place them in a dish lined with baking paper.

Put the dish in the fridge to set the protein balls.
