Protein Muddy Buddies

Step 1

Measure cereal and place in a large bowl, set aside.

Step 2

Pour powered sugar or powdered erythritol and protein powder into 2-gallon resealable zip-lock bag.

Step 3

In a saucepan over low-medium heat add peanut butter, chocolate chips and coconut oil. Stir continuously until chocolate chips have melted and the mixture is smooth. If you're using a microwave, heat the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30 second increments until melted. Then stir in peanut butter until combined.

Step 4

Pour chocolate mixture over cereal and toss until evenly coated.

Step 5

Carefully pour coated cereal mixture into the bag with the powdered sugar and protein powder. Seal bag; shake until well coated. Spread on parchment paper to cool completely. Make sure you let it cool for a while before putting it in a container, otherwise your mix will get soggy.

Step 6

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keeping it in the fridge will keep it fresh and crunchy!
