Macadamia Protein Bites are a combination of all the good fats which get the tick of approval in a Dr Ray Peat style diet.
These days I cut the pieces up a little smaller as I keep to only 40g of fat a day and that seems to keep my weight in check.
In the interests of super delicious and satisfying, here is another recipe for your repertoire: –
Macadamia Protein Bites
Base
½ cup 40UP – Collagen Protein Powder*
½ cup macadamia nuts
2 TBS honey
¼ cup coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
1/4 cup cacao butter
1 TBS honey
1 TBS peanut powder
Whizz the nuts in a food processor until all stuck together. Throw in the rest of the base ingredients and keep whizzing until one sticky ball.
Press into a tin lined with baking paper and chill in fridge.
For the topping, melt cacao butter in a double boiler over low heat. Add the honey and peanut powder, mixing until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the base and keep in the fridge.
Happy healthy cooking!
