Y’all, these protein bites are freaking delicious. Like, flavor-explosion, peanut-buttery goodness delicious. And with them making a weekly appearance around here, I don’t know how it has taken me so long to put out this recipe! When I started making these a couple years ago, I based them off of another recipe. But recently I realized just how much they have changed from that original recipe! So it’s time to finally share it with you!
I’ve experimented a lot with different protein bites, balls, and bars over the past couple of years and these are, without fail, the ones that we come back to every time! Draz has them every day as a snack and has for a long time now. I’ve recently been having them between Job 1 and Job 2 to help me power through those last couple hours!
Enjoy!
