Description
Delicious chocolate protein brownie bites that are easy to make, packed with protein, healthy fats, and taste just like fudgy brownies.
Ingredients
- ½ cup natural creamy almond butter (or peanut butter)
- ¼ cup honey (or maple syrup for vegan version)
- ½ cup collagen peptides (or any protein powder)
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 1 tablespoon oat flour (more if needed)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- Flaky sea salt (optional for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Mix the base ingredients: Add almond butter and honey to a large bowl and stir until well combined.
- Add dry ingredients: Include collagen peptides, cocoa powder, flaxseed meal, and oat flour; mix until it resembles thick cookie dough.
- Check consistency: The dough should be thick and moldable; add more oat flour if too wet.
- Fold in chocolate chips: Gently incorporate mini chocolate chips throughout the dough.
- Form the bites: Use a small cookie scoop to portion out the dough, rolling each portion into smooth balls.
- Add finishing touch: Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.
- Chill to set: Transfer to the refrigerator for at least 1 hour until firm.
Notes
For nut-free version, substitute with sunflower seed butter or tahini, and adjust oat flour if needed.
