Why Add Whey Protein & MCT Oil to Keto Energy Bites

How to Maximize Your Keto Energy Bites Experience:
- USE CASHEW BUTTER: We recommend a cashew butter because it’s the creamiest of the nut butters. Our favorite is Artisana Organics Raw Cashew Butter. While peanut butter or almond butter could work, they tend to have a stronger taste, which will change the flavor.
- GO NUTS: If walnuts aren’t your thing, cashews or almonds are a great alternative. Just note that cashews and almonds both take a bit longer to break down in the food processor, so it may increase the recipe time.
- USE CHOCOLATE PROTEIN POWDER: Not only is our Chocolate Organic Grass Fed Whey a key player in the flavor of these energy balls, but each serving contains 20 grams of complete protein and less than 1 gram of sugar to help you feel fuller, longer!
- CHOOSE YOUR MILK: If you don’t have almond milk, it’s not a deal breaker. Coconut milk or any nut milk will do the job without affecting the flavor.
