Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 stick or 4 Tbsp / 57g (2.01 oz) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (128 g / 4.5 oz) natural peanut butter
  • 2 Tbsp (14 g / 0.49 oz) coconut flour
  • 2 Tbsp (20 g / 0.71 oz) vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1/2 cup (85 g / 3 oz) sugar-free chocolate bars or chips, melted
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) organic vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (288 g / 10.2 oz) powdered Xylitol or other powdered natural sweetener
  • If your dough is too sticky, add another teaspoon of coconut flour. If it's too dry or crumbly, add a teaspoon of melted butter or more peanut butter until it comes together.
  • For a different texture, mix in 1/4 cup (960 ml) of sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts directly into the dough before rolling.
  • Store these peanut butter balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months for a perfect grab-and-go treat.
  • Ensure your sweetener is powdered. Granulated sweeteners will result in a gritty texture. If you only have granulated, pulse it in a clean coffee grinder or high-speed blender until fine.

Method
 

  1. Preparation
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and natural peanut butter.
  3. Using an electric hand mixer, beat on medium speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the vanilla extract and vanilla whey protein powder to the bowl.
  5. Mix on low speed until just combined.
  6. Gradually add the powdered Xylitol, mixing on low speed until a thick, cohesive dough forms. The mixture should be firm enough to roll.
  7. Scoop out portions of the dough and roll them between your palms to form 24 uniform, bite-sized balls.
  8. Arrange the balls in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  9. Drizzle the melted sugar-free chocolate over the top of each ball.
  10. Transfer the baking sheet to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
