Description
A quick, no-bake, high-protein breakfast or snack that tastes like dessert while staying nutritious and easy to make.
Ingredients
1/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp coconut flour
1/4 cup dark cocoa powder
1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/4 cup granulated sweetener
1/2 cup plain applesauce
3/4 cup protein powder
1/2 tsp coconut oil
2 tbsp white chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Line a baking sheet with wax paper and set aside.
2. In a bowl, mix protein powder, coconut flour, cocoa powder, and sweetener until well combined.
3. Add pumpkin puree, applesauce, and almond milk to the dry mix and stir until a smooth dough forms.
4. Roll the dough into heaping tablespoon-sized balls and place them on the baking sheet.
5. Melt white chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave, stirring between 30-second intervals until smooth.
6. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the balls and freeze for 10 minutes to set.
7. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
Notes
Start with less almond milk and add more only if the dough is too dry.
Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing.
Chill dough before rolling if it’s too sticky.
Coat hands with coconut oil to prevent sticking when forming balls.
Taste and adjust sweetness if using sweetened protein powder.
