Banana Bread Protein Balls

Steps

1. 1In a mixing bowl, whisk together the protein powder, almond flour, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
2. 2Next, add the cashew butter, mashed banana, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl and stir until well combined and a dough forms.
3. 3Fold the chocolate chips into the dough until evenly distributed.
4. 4Use a 2 tablespoon size cookie dough scoop to scoop them into balls and then use your hands to roll them into smooth balls.
5. 5Transfer the protein balls to the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up.
6. 6While the protein balls firm up in the freezer, melt the additional dark chocolate chips in the microwave by placing them in a microwave safe bowl and microwaving for 30 seconds at a time until melted.
7. 7Remove the protein balls from the freezer and use two forks to dip and roll them in the melted chocolate until completely coated. Transfer to a parchment lined sheet pan and then top with flaky salt.
8. 8Place the balls back into the fridge or freezer until the chocolate hardens.
9. 9Store the balls in the fridge for a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
