Ingredients

• 100 grams Vanilla protein powder
• 60 grams Whole wheat flour
• 120 ml Almond milk
• 30 ml Honey
• 50 grams Greek yogurt
• 2 large Eggs
• 5 ml Vanilla extract
• 5 grams Baking powder
• 30 ml Coconut oil
• 100 grams Dark chocolate chips (optional for coating)
• 20 grams Sprinkles or nuts for decoration

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a muffin tin with cupcake liners.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla protein powder, whole wheat flour, and baking powder. Mix well.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, honey, eggs, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until fully combined and smooth.

Step 5

Add melted coconut oil to the batter and mix until it is fully incorporated.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the cake to cool completely on a wire rack before crumbling it into a large bowl.

Step 8

Shape the crumbled cake into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 9

If desired, melt dark chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave.

Step 10

Dip each cake ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it's evenly coated. You can also insert a lollipop stick into each ball for traditional cake pops.

Step 11

Place them back on the parchment paper and decorate with sprinkles or chopped nuts as desired.

Step 12

Chill in the refrigerator until the chocolate has set, about 20 minutes, before serving.
