Vanilla Coconut Protein Balls

Packed with good healthy fats and protein! These are lightly sweet-- if you prefer something sweeter there are options below for chocolate coatings :)




what you need:2 Egg Whites3 tbsp Xylitol
1 tbsp Raw Local Honey

1 scoop Jay Robb Vanilla Protein Powder

2/3 Cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
what to do:Place egg whites, xylitol and honey into a bowl and whisk. Add in protein powder and shredded coconut and stir until completely coated. Set aside for a couple moments. Coat baking sheet with coconut oil (or coconut oil spray) or use parchment paper. Form mixture into 1 inch balls and bake at 300 until they begin to get golden. 

*I saved the egg yolks and made hollandaise sauce once, and banana custard another time! You can also make icecreams. I don't like to waste the yolk-- it's the most nutritious part!
extra: if you want them dipped in chocolate
option 1: can melt down coconut oil, unsweetened chocolate, cinnamon and liquid stevia
option 2: can melt down a simply lite chocolate bar
option 3: can melt down a dark chocolate bar
option 4: can melt down coconut oil with cocoa powder & liquid stevia or xyltol.
