Ingredients
– 1/2 cup protein powder (unflavored or vanilla recommended, about 54 grams)
– 1/2 cup coconut flour
– 3 tablespoons granulated sugar or sweetener of choice (such as monk fruit sweetener or stevia for low carb)

– 1/4 cup blueberry puree (made from fresh or frozen blueberries, pureed or mashed with an optional splash of lemon juice to brighten color)
