Ingredients
  

Deco (optional)

  • 2 Tbsp desicatted coconut

Instructions
 

  • Mix protein powder, coconut flour, coconut yogurt and coconut pieces togeher in a small bowl. Carefully open the probiotic capsule and empty the contents into the bowl and mix well.
  • Add more coconut flour if the dough is too soft, add a teaspoon or more of yogurt if the dough is too thick****
  • Roll the batter into tablespoon sized balls, then roll them into desicaated coconut.
  • refrigerate for 15 minutes to set

Notes

*I used a plant-based protein powder. Whey protein powder also works, but the result will be gummier.
**You can use Greek yogurt, or other vegan, dairy free (almond milk or soy milk) yogurt
 
***I used unsweetened desiccated coconut
****I find that it's best to use my hands to mix the dough because it takes some kneading and pressing to get the dough to come together.
