Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240 ml) almond flour
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) collagen peptides
Binding Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) maple syrup
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) nut butter
Optional Add-Ins:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) chocolate chips or nuts
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Gather dry ingredients like almond flour, cocoa powder, and collagen peptides in a medium mixing vessel. Whisk thoroughly to ensure uniform distribution, creating a smooth foundational mixture.
- In a separate container, blend maple syrup with nut butter until achieving a consistent, glossy texture. Aim for complete integration of liquid components.
- Gradually incorporate wet ingredients into dry mixture, stirring methodically. If the dough appears crumbly, introduce small amounts of water or additional nut butter to reach optimal binding consistency.
- For enhanced flavor profile, gently fold in optional mix-ins such as chocolate chips or chopped nuts. Distribute ingredients evenly throughout the dough.
- Using clean hands or a small scoop, shape mixture into compact spheres approximately 1-inch in diameter. Arrange on a parchment-lined surface, maintaining slight separation between each bite.
- Refrigerate for 30-45 minutes at 40°F to solidify texture and intensify flavors. Once chilled, serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container for preservation up to 7 days.
- Store remaining brownie bites in refrigerator, consuming within one week for optimal taste and nutritional integrity. Enjoy these nutrient-dense, protein-enriched treats as a wholesome snack or quick energy boost.
Notes
- Customize texture by adjusting liquid ingredients, adding more nut butter or water to achieve perfect dough consistency without crumbling.
- Experiment with alternative sweeteners like honey or stevia for different dietary needs, ensuring the same rich brownie-like flavor profile.
- Enhance nutritional value by incorporating additional superfood mix-ins like chia seeds, hemp hearts, or ground flaxseed for extra protein and omega-3 benefits.
- Store brownie bites in freezer for extended shelf life, allowing quick grab-and-go protein-packed snacks that maintain their delicious texture and nutritional integrity.
