Description

These no-bake cake batter balls taste just like cake batter but are made with healthy ingredients! They’re packed with protein, naturally sweetened, and perfect for a quick snack or dessert.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter (or almond butter)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract (for a true cake flavor)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp rainbow sprinkles (optional, for fun!)
  • 1 tbsp milk of choice (if needed for texture)

Instructions

  • Mix Dry Ingredients – In a bowl, combine almond flour, protein powder, and salt.
  • Add Wet Ingredients – Stir in cashew butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  • Adjust Texture – If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of milk. If too sticky, add a bit more almond flour.
  • Fold in Sprinkles – Gently stir in the rainbow sprinkles.
  • Roll into Balls – Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll into small balls.
  • Chill & Enjoy – Place in the fridge for at least 20 minutes before eating.

Notes

  • Nut-Free Option – Use oat flour instead of almond flour and sunflower seed butter instead of cashew butter.
  • Extra Protein – Add an extra tablespoon of protein powder.
  • Storage – Keep in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
