These protein-rich truffles are sure to become a new staple in your house. Combining my Farmacy Super Simple Grassfed Protein with cashew butter, coconut, vanilla, orange zest, and a splash of orange juice creates a smooth dough you can easily roll into these tasty bites. The orange-vanilla flavor goes great with your morning cup of coffee.
Coating these in a coconut butter glaze adds energy-boosting healthy fats and makes them taste extra decadent. I love having options like this in the freezer for an easy breakfast or whenever I need an afternoon pick-me-up.
Enjoy!
Wishing you health and happiness,

Throughout my decades of working with patients, I noticed that most people aren’t hitting the mark for protein each day, which majorly impacts our metabolic and muscular health. The biggest hurdle is often time. That’s why I made Farmacy Super Simple Grassfed Protein, which has minimal ingredients to help you maximize your meal. With highly bioavailable grassfed collagen protein, it’s a delicious and easy way to boost your protein intake even on the busiest of days. It comes in both Chocolate and Vanilla and works great in all of your favorite recipes, from smoothies to these amazing truffles I’m sharing with you today.
