  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

  2. In a large bowl, whisk the protein powder, rice flour, oat flour, coffee, cinnamon and salt.
  3. In a food processor or blender, process the dates, maple syrup, vanilla extract, powdered peanut butter and 1/4 cup of almond milk, scraping down the sides as needed.
  4. Scrape the date mixture into the dry ingredients and mash together with a fork until almost blended. Begin adding the remaining almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough is sticky but not overly wet.
