Peanut Butter No Bake Balls

I saw this on MyFitnessPal and wanted to record it somewhere.  I haven't made it though.  If I did, I'd definitely do a sugar substitute like Splenda and I'd probably use peanut butter that had no sweeteners in it.  =)


*3 tablespoons and 1 teaspoon of reduced fat peanut butter  
*3 tablespoons of sugar 
*1/8 of a banana (mashed) 
*1/8 tsp of Vanilla Extract 
*1/8 tsp of salt 
*1/4 tsp of baking soda 

Mix the PB and sugar until its like a paste.  
Then, with a mixer, mix in the banana with the PB and sugar.  
Then mix in all the rest of the ingredients. 
It will look dry but keep mixing until you get a dough-y consistency.  
Form dough into small 1 inch balls (or however big you want) 
This recipe makes 10 balls.  

No-Bake Peanut Butter Protein Balls


Dough Balls
1 scoop Jay Robb Chocolate Whey Protein Powder
3 Tbsp. Maranatha Peanut Butter, Crunchy with a hint of sea salt


Powder Mixture
1/2 scoop Meridian Health Labs Chocolate Protein Powder (approx. 1 Tbsp.)
1/2 tsp. Now Foods Organic Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
1/2 tsp. Splenda for Baking (or 1 packet of Splenda)
Unsweetened Coconut flakes / shredded (optional)



To make the dough balls, mix the Jay Robb Chocolate Whey Protein Powder with the 3 Tbsp. of Peanut Butter thoroughly.  Roll into approx. 1 inch balls.  You should end up with 10-12 balls.
Mix the Meridian Protein Powder, the cocoa powder and the splenda separately.  Mix thoroughly.
Roll the dough balls in the powdered mixture.  
Place each powdered dough ball on wax paper.
Refrigerate for about 1 hour.  
Eat.  =)
