Tips for making no-bake keto protein balls:
- If the keto protein ball mix seems to not stick together, add an extra 1 to 3 teaspoons of water.
- I’m a peanut butter AND a chocolate fan so adding in those keto-sweetened chocolate chips is a must (well, at least for me it is!). ChocZero no-sugar-added chocolate chips are my go-to 😋, but any keto or sugar-free chocolate chips will work for this recipe.
- ChocZero does have amazing keto syrups but same as with the chocolate chips, any keto or sugar-free syrup will work for this recipe. You also don’t have to use caramel-flavored syrup. Keto maple, vanilla, or even chocolate syrup will work. The purpose of the syrup is to help hold everything together.
- Want even more protein? Add in almond butter or protein powder to really kick it up a notch.
Keto protein balls are filling and delectable!
Even your kiddos will love these low-carb protein balls, so I suggest hiding a few for yourself so they don’t all get gobbled up instantly. They’re perfect for making a big batch at the beginning of the week for a yummy snack to enjoy all week long!
Here’s what my Hip sidekick Emily thought of these keto protein balls:
“What a tasty little treat! These are delicious and perfect for an on-the-go snack. I loved that they’re no-bake as well. Sometimes it’s nice to not have to turn on the oven! They taste like a dessert but are the perfect, healthy keto treat!”

I do not have the choc 0 syrup but I do have other syrups. Which one can I use in exchange? These look yummy!
Hi Lisa! You can use any syrup that fits your lifestyle. The syrup is used for flavor and as a binder. Hope this helps❤
I made today and they were easy and quite tasty. I didn’t have the ChocZero syrup but got Walden Farms Chocolate Dip at Sprouts that is zero carbs/calories. I didn’t have hemp hearts but used hemp seeds instead. They turned out wonderful and even my husband loved them. He wouldn’t eat hemp seed, flax seeds, or chia seeds if I held him down and forced him, and he loved them. BTW, I used almond butter rather than peanut butter.
Sounds like a great combination! I’m glad you found some way your husband will eat the seeds.
How long do you think these will stay good in the fridge? Also, can you put these in the freezer to last longer?
Yes! I believe either will work. You could put them in an air tight container or freezer bag. Hoping that helps!
