Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter flavored protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup 70% dark chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons roasted crushed peanuts

Instructions

  • Combine the creamy peanut butter, protein powder, maple syrup, and coconut flour in a large mixing bowl.
  • Stir the mixture until a thick, pliable dough forms that does not stick to the hands.
  • Portion the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each into a smooth sphere approximately 1 inch in diameter.
  • Place the spheres on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 20 minutes to increase structural integrity.
  • Melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  • Using a dipping tool or fork, submerge each chilled protein ball into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
  • Return the coated truffles to the parchment paper and immediately top with crushed peanuts.
  • Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the chocolate shell to temper and set.
