  • 15gVegan chocolate protein powder (pea, soy, or blend)

  • 1-2 tbspUnsweetened almond milk (or water)

👨‍🍳Method

1

Mix the Dry Ingredients

1 min

In a small mixing bowl, combine the vegan chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, oat flour, zero-calorie sweetener, and the pinch of sea salt.

2

Create the Dough

2 min

Add the hazelnut extract (if using). Slowly pour in the unsweetened almond milk, about a half-tablespoon at a time. Mix vigorously with a spoon or your hands until it forms a thick, moldable, and slightly sticky dough.

💡Vegan protein powder is highly absorbent — add liquid very cautiously. You can always add more, but you can't take it back.
3

Form the Bombs

2 min

Divide the dough evenly into 3 equal portions. Roll each portion between the palms of your hands to form three perfectly round spheres.

💡If the dough sticks to your hands, dampen your palms with a drop of water.
4

Coat the Bombs

2 min

Spread the finely crushed hazelnuts (or peanuts) out on a small plate. Roll each sticky chocolate ball through the crushed nuts, pressing gently so the nut pieces adhere fully to the outside.

5

Set and Serve

15-20 min

Place the coated bombs on a plate or in a small container and place them in the refrigerator for at least 15-20 minutes to firm up before serving.

💡Store any leftovers in the fridge — they keep for up to 5 days and actually improve in flavor over time.
