Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 16 Balls

Equipment

  • High-speed blender or food processor
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup coconut flour sifted
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup allulose see notes; can substitute coconut sugar or other granulated sweetener
  • 1 medium banana about 1/4 cup mashed
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter or any nut or seed butter
  • 1/4 cup milk adjust as needed depending on flour; see notes
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips optional

Instructions
 

  • Peel and mash the banana in a high-speed blender, food processor, or mixing bowl until smooth.
  • Add the sifted coconut flour, salt, cinnamon, allulose, maple syrup, peanut butter, and 1/4 cup milk to the mashed banana.
  • Blend or mix until a uniform dough forms; if the mixture is too thick, add additional milk 1 teaspoon at a time, and if too thin, add a little more coconut flour.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, if using, until evenly distributed.
  • Use your hands to form the mixture into 16 bite-sized balls.
  • Refrigerate the balls for at least 20 minutes to firm up before serving.

Notes

  • Allulose, coconut sugar, or any granulated sweetener will work.
  • Adjust the milk as needed; coconut flour absorbs more liquid.
  • You can add 1–2 scoops of protein powder to increase protein.
