Cafe Latte Energy Bites

Because Protein Snacks Shouldn't Be Gross.... 

I have tried many many recipes for protein bites and balls and cookies and typically I think they taste super gross. This recipe is hands down the best I have made. We ate way too many in one sitting and they are all already gone. I wanted to use the new vegan cafe latte shakeology that I had on hand and wanted to do more than just turn it into a shake. It takes less than five minutes to make and is made up of lots of healthy ingredients. 

Try it out if you need a sweet fix for your late night cravings. I like to keep mine in the fridge. They taste best cold. 

Ingredients 

• ¼ cup chopped peanuts (unsalted) 
• ½ cup dry old-fashioned rolled oats
• ½ cup all-natural nut butter ( I used peanut butter) 
• 2 scoops Cafe Latte Vegan Shakeology 
• 2 Tbsp. chia seeds
• ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
• 1 tsp of hazelnut extract 

Directions 

1. Combine peanuts, oats, nut butter, Shakeology, chia seeds, hazelnut extract and maple syrup in a medium bowl; mix well.
2. Roll into eighteen balls, about 1-inch in diameter each.
