Are you a cookie dough or cookie type of person??
I know that some of you guys don’t own food processors so here is a protein ball recipe that does not require a machine at all – literally just two bowls, spatulas and your own hands for rolling!
These protein balls literally taste like peanut butter cookie dough… and I guess if you wanted cookies you could totally bake them too.
My recipe can be found in @recipesforlifecookbook along with a whole lot of other incredible recipes by other Australian creators. However, today I will be sharing it here for you guys to try too!
Here is the recipe:
