Chocolate Coconut Balls
This is a GREAT after school snack for my kids.
And a great protein + omega pick-me-up for me! Great for after a fun or a mid-afternoon healthy snack.
I always have a tray of these in the freezer for my kids to grab when they get home from school and enjoy.
Ingredients:
2T coconut oil
1 scoop vegan chocolate protein powder
1T sunflower seed butter
2T coconut milk
2 T ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl–EXCLUDING the unsweetened shredded coconut.
Line a tray with wax paper.
Form the ingredients into little balls.
Roll each ball in the unsweetened shredded coconut.
Add the balls to the tray, then put into the freezer for 30 minutes to form.
Leave in freezer until ready to serve (they get soft at room temp).
Can store in the freezer for 2 weeks.
Makes 4 balls.
ProTip: if mix is too dry, add 1 T water to mix until desired moisture is reached.
Live Life Optimally,
Kristie
