Salted Caramel Chocolate Protein Balls

So I’ve been wanted to make something like this for ages so I looked up some recipes and different ideas that might suit my taste buds and also the ingredients I had to hand! This is what I came up with and they are good šŸ™‚

What you need:

1 cup cashews

1/2 cup Shredded Coconut (plus 1tbsp. For rolling)

1 tbsp. Sweet Freedom Fruit Syrup

1 scoop Protein (I used Lean Whey in Chocolate flavour)

2 tbsp. Nuts and More Salted Caramel

15 Pitted Dates (chopped)

Pinch Sea Salt

1 tbsp. Cacao (for rolling)

What to do:

Place the cashews, coconut, nut butter, salt, protein, dates and fruit syrup into a food processor or nutri bullet and blitz until the mixture comes together

I had to blitz a couple of times as I used my Nutribullet

When the mixture is together, place in a small bowl

Sprinkle the cacao and the extra coconut onto a tray or chopping board

Take about 1tbsp. of mixture and roll into a ball

Roll the ball into the cacao/coconut

Continue this until all the mixture is used. Mine made 14 balls

Place them into the fridge for about 2 hours

And hey presto- done and they are delicious!!!

The batch should keep me going unless my folks decide to help me eat them šŸ™‚

I know you’ll love this one- quick easy and chocolatey šŸ˜šŸ˜

Thanks for reading,
