Notes
Please note depending on how runny your peanut butter is you may need to adjust the oat/almond flour to meet desired consistency preferences! I typically recommend 3-5 tbsp! The sweetness of your portein powder will also affect the taste- if you are user a sweeter protein powder you may be able to decrease the amount of maple syrup! If you are using a more neutral tasting protein powder you can add more maple syrup! *I have included the nutrition information for this recipe above (mix-ins not included). However, always remember a recipe is so much more than just nutritional content and these numbers do not need to dictate your food choices. Please don't forget both your body and soul need nourishment!
