Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a food processor, combine Medjool dates, protein powder, sunflower seed butter, and a pinch of salt. Pulse for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture transforms into a sticky dough.
  2. Use a small cookie scoop or your hands to portion out the mixture. Roll each portion into a ball about 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Place the tray of formed protein bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. If coating, melt dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until smooth. Dip each chilled bite in chocolate, letting excess drip off.
  5. Transfer completed bites to an airtight container. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one month or frozen for up to three months.
