Notes

Creamy peanut butter. Any nut or seed butter can be used in this recipe, you can also use crunchy if you like little bits of peanuts in your protein balls.
Honey. any liquid sweetener can be used in place of honey if desired (and to make them vegan). I suggest maple syrup as a great alternative.
