Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- ½ cup almond flour (or oat flour)
- ¼ cup vanilla protein powder
- ⅓ cup freeze-dried blueberries (or finely chopped fresh blueberries)
Wet Ingredients
- ¼ cup cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional
- ¼ cup crushed graham crackers (for rolling, optional)
Instructions
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, vanilla protein powder, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until a thick dough forms. Then gently fold in the freeze-dried blueberries, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Roll into Bites: Using clean hands, roll the dough into 1-inch balls. If you prefer a cheesecake-like finish, roll each ball in crushed graham crackers to coat the exterior evenly.
- Chill & Serve: Place the protein bites on a plate or baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up. Enjoy them immediately after chilling, or store the bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Use a high-quality vanilla or cheesecake-flavored protein powder for the best taste.
- If the dough feels too dry, add a splash of almond milk to achieve a softer texture.
- These protein bites can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw before eating.
- For a different flavor profile, try substituting almond flour with oat flour.
- Freeze-dried blueberries provide a concentrated flavor and dry texture; fresh blueberries can be used but may affect the consistency.
