Vegan High Protein Energy Balls
Vegan High Protein Energy Balls are a tasty, no-bake treat packed with peanut butter and chocolate flavor. This simple recipe delivers a healthy vegan snack for any time of day.
Ingredients
- 1 cup 100g superfine almond flour
- ½ cup 80g chia seeds
- 1 cup 100g plant-based protein powder (vanilla or low-carb)
- ½ cup 128g creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup 80g vegan keto chocolate chips
- ¼ cup 60ml coconut oil
Instructions
Combine Ingredients
- In a bowl, I mix 1 cup almond flour, ½ cup chia seeds, 1 cup protein powder, ½ cup peanut butter, ½ cup vegan keto chocolate chips, and ¼ cup coconut oil until evenly blended for this plant-based energy treat.
Mix Thoroughly
- I stir with a spatula or hands until the mixture clumps when pressed for this simple recipe.
Shape Balls
- I roll into 24 balls and place on parchment paper for this Vegan High Protein Energy Balls.
Chill and Store
- I refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm up, then store in an airtight container for this healthy vegan snack.
Notes
- If the mixture doesn't hold together, add a little nondairy milk.
- I typically use Lily's semisweet keto baking chips, which are also vegan, for these peanut butter chocolate balls. Keep in mind that Lily's white chocolate chips do contain milk. I didn't have any keto chocolate chips on hand this time so for the video and photos I used vegan white chocolate chips that are not keto. You can also use dark chocolate or mini chocolate chips or flavored chocolate chips, like mint chocolate chips.
- You can make these energy balls any size you want. I made about 20 to 22, and they were quite hefty and filling at that size. You can shape them into smaller bites, or larger.
- There is no need for any added sugar or maple syrup or dates in this recipe. The protein powder and peanut butter add enough sweetness.
