Ingredients used to make Raspberry Cheesecake Protein Balls

• Protein Powder– You can use any protein powder for this, but in this recipe I used a vanilla plant-basedprotein powder, like this one below.

• Raspberries - I've tried using both fresh and frozen raspberries to make these protein balls with great results. Frozen raspberries give you a darker rose-pink color vs. fresh raspberries which give you a more lighter pink. Just make sure if you're using frozen berries that they're completely thawed.

• Cream Cheese* - I’ve tried using both dairy and vegan cream cheese made from almond milk, and both turn out delicious.

• Coconut Flour - you can use any brand of coconut flour for this recipe.

• Sugar of Choice (optional) – you can omit this ingredient in this recipe if you like, but I used monk fruit sweetener in this recipe which helps keep this recipe low-sugar and low carb

Step by Step Guide

Recipe Variations and Optional Add Ins:

• You can use other berries for this recipe, such as strawberries, blueberries or blackberries
• Feel free to experiment with natural flavoring / extracts. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract (I didn't feel like it was essential so I left it out in this recipe), or other flavorings or extracts, such as lemon extract or raspberry extract
• Add a tablespoon of chocolate chips into the batter if you don't want to have to melt and coat the protein balls in chocolate
• You can also use semi-sweet chocolate to coat these raspberry protein balls. You can also use my healthy keto chocolate recipe instead!
• To turn this into a Raspberry Cheesecake Truffle, coat the balls in white chocolate!

How to Make this Healthier

• Make this even healthier by adding a handful of nuts, seeds and old-fashioned oats to add texture and nutrition. Even better, add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed, hemp seeds, or chia seeds.

How to Store Raspberry Cheesecake Protein Balls

• Store these protein balls covered in the fridge for up to 3-5 days.

Final Tips

• Coconut flour and protein powders are all very different depending on brands, so if you find that the dough is too soft, add more coconut flour; if the dough is too thick, add a teaspoon or more of water, honey or liquid sweetener of choice.
