Chocolate Peanut Protein Bites

Unctuous and delicious, I adore these protein dense bites and it's always a good day when I get back from the gym and find a tray of these, ready to enjoy with a cup of coffee. 

I like to make them using a whey protein powder from The Organic Protein Co. Their vanilla flavour isnt too sweet, but you can substitute that for a plant based protein powder such as Nuzest instead.

What ever you do, make sure to give them a try and let me know what you think!

Method

  1. Line a square brownie tin with baking parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the peanut butter, protein powder and coconut flour together with a wooden spoon.
  3. Spread your mixture into the prepared baking tin + press it down to make a smooth base.
  4. Add the chocolate to a bowl and microwave on high for 30 to 45-second intervals until melted. Make sure it's well mixed + melted.
