Kourt's Matcha Protein Bites

Get ready for a par-tea in your mouth—these matcha protein bites are so delicious, it’s almost hard to believe that they’re also good for you. After seeing a tray of these truffle-looking balls on Kourt’s counter, naturally we had to find out a) what they were and b) how to make them. So we spoke with Chef K, Kourt’s personal chef, and she graciously gave us her exact recipe.

The bites are easy to make, and serve up protein and healthy fats with a blend of almond butter and almond flour. They’re lightly sweetened with a touch of maple syrup, and coated with matcha chocolate. Seriously, the mix of textures and flavors is u n r e a l. Ready for your new midday pick-me-up?
