Ingredients

  • 110 g of peanut butter (with no added sugar)
  • 50 g of protein powder
  • 50 g of butter (60% fat)
  • 10 g of hazelnuts or almonds (12 hazelnuts or almonds)
  • A few drops of vanilla or almond extract

Instructions

  1. Add peanut butter to a larger bowl.

  2. Add protein powder to the bowl.

  3. Mix the two ingredients together. The mass will be a bit too dry but don't worry about it now. 

  4. Add the sweetener of your choice (either stevia or erythritol) and a few drops of almond or vanilla extract. 

  5. Dissolve butter and add it to the mix. 

  6. Mix all the ingredients with a tablespoon until smooth. 

  7. Form the balls of the preferred size. Add either a hazelnut or almond inside each ball. 

  8. Place each newly-formed ball into the bowl with cocoa powder. 

  9. <b>OPTIONALLY:</b> Pour some melted milk chocolate coconut butter on the freshly formed balls. 

  10. Put your keto peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes until they harden and become more solid. 

  11. Keep your keto peanut butter balls in the refrigerator. They taste the best when they have hardened and cooled down.  

Recipe Notes

Feel free to change the ingredients if you want to save on calories or if you want to add more fat and turn your peanut butter balls into real fat bombs. You can use regular butter instead of the one with 60% fat I used.
