Peanut Butter Protein Bites

Ingredients

• 2 cups almond meal
• 1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy)
• 1/4 cup cacao powder
• 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder (optional)
• 1/4 cup rice malt syrup
• 1/4 cup coconut oil (extra virgin) melted
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon (ground)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup coconut (desiccated) optional

Method

1. Add all ingredients (except dessicated coconut) to a large bowl and stir until well combined.
2. Use a teaspoon and form small balls rolling well until combined. To prevent sticking, add a touch of oil to your hands prior to doing so. Makes 18 bites.
3. Sprinkle with dessicated coconut if desired and chill in the fridge before serving. Leftovers will keep for 2 weeks in the fridge.
