I made these protein balls the other day, they are so tasty. It isn't my recipe, its someone named Sophie Guidolin, but the recipe is really easy to turn into your own. I'm currently trying to find a way to bulk them out a little to lower the calorie count. I got it lower by halving the coconut and chucking in some puffed millet.
Here is the original recipe
Sophie Guidolin’s Amazeballs
Preparation: 10 minutes, Cooking: 5 minutes, Approx. Total: 15 minutes
Makes 6 at about 136
INGREDIANTS
1/2 cup of sultanas
1/4 cup of almonds
1 tablespoon of melted coconut oil
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/2 cup of shredded coconut
Desiccant coconut (to roll the balls in)
1 scoop of Isomorph protein powder- chocolate
METHOD
Using a food processor add all the ingredients except the desiccant coconut
You will need to watch closely as it goes from being a dry mixture to being ‘too’ soft very quickly.
However it will take around 5 minutes for the mixture to form, as the sultanas are where the moisture comes from.
Once ready, make into balls and roll in the coconut.
Keep fresh in an airtight container in the fridge.0 -

Lamingtons
Serves: 20 | Prep time: 30 min | Cooking time: 20 min | 139 Calories per serve
Ingredients
4 Medium Raw Egg (204g)
1/2 Cups Sugar (110g)
275g Icing Sugar
1/2 Teaspoons Vanilla Bean
Paste (2g)
1/2 Cups Plain Flour (75g)
1/4 Cups Cornflour (30g)
1/2 Cups Cocoa Powder (40g)
80g Grated Desiccated Coconut
Method
1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F), lightly grease and line a 16 x
26cm (base measurement) baking tin baking paper.
2. Place eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat with electric
beaters until thick and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating
until sugar has dissolved. Gently fold in the sifted flour with a large
metal spoon until just combined.
3. Pour mixture into prepared tin, bake for 20 minutes, or until golden
and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Remove,
set aside to cool for 5 minutes, then remove from tin, set aside on
a wire rack to cool completely. Remove paper and trim edges and
carefully cut into 20 even squares.
4. Combine cocoa powder and 140ml boiling water in a large bowl,
stir until smooth. Add icing sugar, stir until sugar has dissolved.
Working one at a time, skewer a square of cake on a fork and
hold over bowl of icing. Spoon icing over to cover, letting any
excess drip off. Sprinkle lightly with coconut. Set aside on a rack
over a tray, until icing has set. Repeat with remaining cake to
make 20 lamingtons.
Tip: Make sure you beat the eggs well. The should rise to be four times the volume and this should take about 10 mins, if not more, with the electric beater! Also fold the flours in really gently, otherwise you will lose all the air you have just put in there…0 -
