Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup protein supplement powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar of your preference

Wet Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese (dairy or non-dairy option)
  • 1/4 cup pureed blueberries

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients. In a large bowl, mix the protein powder, coconut flour, and sugar thoroughly until well blended.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients. Add the cream cheese and pureed blueberries to the dry mixture. Use a spoon or your hands to combine everything into a consistent dough. If the mixture is too dry, add a little more blueberry puree or cream cheese as needed.
  3. Form Balls. Roll the dough into small, bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a tray or plate lined with parchment paper.
  4. Chill to Set. Refrigerate the protein balls for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up before serving. This helps the texture to become more cohesive and enjoyable.
  5. Serve and Store. Once chilled, enjoy immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

  • You can substitute the sugar with natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or stevia to lower the glycemic impact.
  • For a vegan version, use non-dairy cream cheese and ensure the protein powder is plant-based.
  • If the mixture feels too crumbly, add a tablespoon of nut butter or additional cream cheese to help bind.
  • Feel free to roll the balls in shredded coconut, chia seeds, or crushed nuts for added texture and flavor.
  • These protein balls make an excellent pre- or post-workout snack or a healthy dessert alternative.
