Cake Batter Protein Balls
If there's one protein ball recipe you need from this blog, it's this one. I'm a cake batter fiend and this is one of my favorite cake batter things I've ever made!
You need just 3 simple ingredients, and you have 14 cake batter protein bites to keep you fueled and happy all week long!
What You'll Need
peanut butter
honey
sprinkles
Protein Powder
The protein powder you use in a protein ball recipe is super important. Trust me when I say, I’ve tried them all and they are not all created equally.
Some get gritty when you combine them with other ingredients, some don’t melt seamlessly with the peanut butter, some are chunky, etc. There are a lot of reasons certain protein powders don’t work; all you need to know is that I only use one brand - IHeartMacros! Once you try it, you'll never go back.
Note: this powder was created for people who have a hard time digesting protein (many people have a whey protein intolerance without even knowing it) so it’s super easy on your stomach!
I have yet to have a single person tell me they didn’t love this protein and that is rare when it comes to protein powders!
