These biscoff balls make a deliciously healthy and protein-rich snack. Lotus biscoff cookies, nuts and spices are blended together and rolled in cinnamon coconut sugar for the ultimate protein ball!
It is no secret that I am a little obsessed with biscoff. From biscoff carrot cake cheesecake to biscoff waffles, I have integrated these delicious spiced biscuits into many of my recipes.
Today, I want to share a slightly healthier way to enjoy biscoff- in the form of biscoff protein balls! Combining biscoff cookies with high-protein walnuts, almond flour and almond butter makes for a delicious AND nutritious on-the-go snack.
What is Biscoff?
“Biscoff” is actually just the brand name used in the US and the UK for Speculoos. Speculoos is a sweet, spiced biscuit that was originally manufactured in Belgium.
How to make Biscoff Balls
These healthy biscoff bites are super easy to make, and come together in just 5 minutes!
- Mix together 1 tsp of cinnamon and coconut sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
- Blend together biscoff cookies, walnuts, almond flour, almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla essence and 1 tsp of cinnamon in food processor until combined.
- Use your hands to roll the mixture into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture, then place the balls into a sealed container. Put in the fridge or freezer to set for at least 4 hours before eating.
Ingredients for Biscoff Balls
BISCOFF COOKIES: You can use lotus biscoff cookies or any kind of speculoos cookies you can find.
WALNUTS: Feel free to substitute for another type of nut like almonds or pecans if you don’t have walnuts on hand.
ALMOND FLOUR: You can substitute for oat or coconut flour but do not use all-purpose flour.
ALMOND BUTTER: Once, again you can substitute for another type of nut butter however I wouldn’t recommend using peanut butter as the flavour will not go with the biscoff.
COCONUT SUGAR: Coconut sugar is a natural sugar with a lovely caramelized flavour so works really well with the biscoff. You can substitute for brown sugar or omit entirely.
