Directions
For peanut butter balls, place coconut flour, protein powder and maple syrup in a large bowl; add oatmilk or almondmilk. Beat with an electric mixer on low until crumbly and well combined. Roll mixture into 10 balls; place in prepared baking pan. Refrigerate until set.
For coating, place coconut oil, peanut butter and maple syrup in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH at 20-second intervals just until melted, whisking each time until smooth.
To assemble, dip peanut butter balls in coating; shake off excess and return to prepared baking pan. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Let stand until set, if necessary.
For dumbbells, connect 2 balls by inserting the balls onto each end of each pretzel. Spoon melted chocolate into a disposable pastry bag; snip off end. Pipe the year or a word on each ball; let stand or refrigerate until set.
