Making your own almond meal is easy if you have a blender. 1 cup of almonds makes 1.5 cups of almond meal. If your protein powder is unflavoured you can add 1tsp of vanilla essence.
- Add the almond meal, coconut and protein power to a bowl and stir to combine.
- Add the erythritol and boiling water to a small bowl and stir until dissolved.
- Add the lemon juice and stir again.
- Mix the liquid ingredients and dry ingredients till combined, then take tablespoon portions and roll into balls.
- Roll in coconut and store in the fridge. They will firm up after half an hour or so in the fridge.
