Cake Batter Protein Balls

I have made several protein snacks and these cake batter protein balls may be my favorite EVER!! They seriously taste like vanilla cake batter, but are sneakily filled with protein and simple ingredients! Reaching for healthy snacks at home or to bring on-the-go is no problem when they taste this good.

These cake batter protein balls are only made with 7 ingredients, take a few minutes to make and are vegan & paleo friendly! I love having quick & easy snacks on hand and homemade protein bars/balls have been my go-to the last few years.

What You’ll Need:

To make these Cake Batter Protein Balls, you’ll just need 7 simple ingredients and a few simple steps!

Ingredients:

cashew butter
vanilla pea protein
coconut flour
maple syrup
vanilla extract
milk of choice
white chocolate chips
coconut oil

* Possible substitutes listed below. NOTE: I have not personally tried any of these substitutes for this recipe, however I believe they could work.

if cashew butter isn’t your favorite or you have allergies, you could substitute any nut or seed butter, however it will change the taste
any vanilla protein powder (whey protein, etc) should work, however you may have to tweak the amount
if you don’t have coconut flour, you could try subbing 1/2 cup almond flour. Typically 1/4 cup coconut flour = 1 cup almond flour, but it does not always work.
to make this truly vegan/paleo, you could substitute the white chocolate/coconut oil mixture for coconut butter

How To Make:

This recipe comes together in just a few simple steps. All you have to do is mix the ingredients together, refrigerate & roll into balls! If you want to, dip in white chocolate and top with sprinkles, freeze until the chocolate hardens (only a few minutes) & enjoy!
