Calories: 160kcal
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup natural peanut butter raw if desired (85g)
- ¼ cup filtered water 2oz
- 1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla extract
- a pinch of sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup natural vanilla rice protein powder 28g
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325F (163C).
- Mix peanut butter, water, and vanilla until combined.
- Add salt and cinnamon. Mix well.
- Add rice protein. Mix well.
- If the batter is too sticky (sticks to your fingers), add a little more protein powder.
- Form the batter into 12 balls, and place onto parchment-lined cookie sheet. (If dehydrating, place directly on the mesh dehydrator sheets.)
- Using a fork, flatten each ball with a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. (Or dehydrate at 115F for 12-14 hours.)
- Enjoy!
Notes
A note about substitutions: In this recipe, you might try substituting vanilla pea protein powder for the vanilla rice protein powder. Using whey would give it a very different (probably undesirable) texture.
