KETO ENERGY BALLS INGREDIENTS:
This section is where we share a few suggestions and explanations for the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe.
(You can find the exact amounts needed on the recipe card embedded below this section).
Make sure that there is no added sugar in your peanut butter.
Why erythritol?
In our opinion, erythritol is the best keto-friendly sweetener.
– it doesn’t spike your blood sugar,
– it’s completely safe and
– has a very fresh & natural sweet taste.
Because of its natural origin and natural production process (fermentation), we also consider erythritol to be paleo-friendly.
You can use other keto-friendly sweeteners that won’t spike your blood sugar as well, but be aware that you may have to add more or less sweetener if you do so.
Erythritol is about 70% as sweet as sugar whereas other keto-friendly sweeteners like monk fruit and stevia are much sweeter than sugar.
Keep that ratio in mind when using a 1:1 sugar replacement.
You can also use a vanilla bean in exchange.
1 tsp = 1/2 bean
HOW TO MAKE THE KETO ENERGY BALLS:
Add all the ingredients for the keto energy balls into a medium-sized bowl and mix everything thoroughly until you get a smooth mass.
Form about 8 bite-sized balls.
Store the sugar-free keto power bites in an airtight container and consume them within 4-5 days.

Q: How do we include Erythritol in your calculations?
A: The short answer is: we don’t, and we can tell you why.
Erythritol is a sugar alcohol which your body can’t digest.
If you ingest it, it won’t spike your blood sugar & it won’t release insulin (which is a good thing if you want to stay in ketosis).
It passes through our system basically “untouched”.
Because of this, you can subtract the carbs from erythritol completely, which is what we always do.
(We try to be as accurate as possible with this information, but values may vary because of natural occurring fluctuations and different products used.)
