Healthy(ish) Peanut Butter Truffles

ohhhh hiiii thereeee! I am so excited to finally post these healthy(ish) peanut butter chocolate truffles. I wanted to wait til after Thanksgiving, when you’ve finally had a years worth of pie, & you’re ready for something a little lighter & less sweet! 

I’m not a fan of cooking, as you all know but I am a huge fan of dessert, as you all know, lol. So I wanted to make something that would satisfy my sweet tooth, give me a little energy at work & not make me feel super guilty for eating more than one or two. & these my friends, did just that! 

These little beauties are made up of peanut butter, oatmeal, chocolate protein powder, dark chocolate, coconut oil & chia seeds. That’s it! There is some added sugar in the peanut butter & protein powder I used but I’ll def make sure to get a more natural one next time. Real talk for a minute, I’m pretty bad about eating healthy & having a baking blog definitely doesn’t help. But I’m working on it! 

Anyway, I gotta go to work & I’m super tired right now & don’t really know what else to say so I’ll just say bye before I waste anymore of your time, lol. I hope you all love these as much as I do & make sure to tag me @baranbakery or #bakewithb if you make them! 

& if you have any questions or suggestions, you can leave me comment down below or send me a message! Love you all, as always,

Love, B
