Macro Friendly Protein Cheesecake Bites
Our Macro-Balanced Protein Cheesecake Bites are a quick, convenient, and tasty snack to enjoy anywhere, anytime!
Equipment
- 1 Large mixing bowl
- 1 Wooden spoon
Ingredients
- ½ cup vanilla protein powder
- ½ cup coconut flour
- 4 oz cream cheese
- Juice from 1 lemon
- ¼-½ cup almond milk (or water)
- ¼ cup dried strawberries (optional)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl. Using a wooden spoon and/or hands, stir to combine. Note: start with ¼ cup almond milk (or water).
- Take approximately 1 tbsp of the mixture and roll in hands. If the mixture is too dry, add more almond milk or water. If the mixture is too sticky to roll, place in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes.
- Roll approximately into 16 balls.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
Notes
- Don’t forget to soften your cream cheese in advance! If you are using it right out of the refrigerator it will be hard to mix in and will leave you with a different texture of energy bite. To soften cream cheese quickly, simply remove from the packaging, place on a plate, and microwave for 10-15 seconds.
- This recipe is really easy to double, triple, or quadruple. If you’re looking to meal prep a large amount of these, I highly recommend adjusting the portions. You can keep the extras in the freezer for up to 6 months!
