Snickerdoodle Protein Balls- gf, df, and blood sugar friendly

Beth Bollinger of Nest Wellness

I love a good protein packed snack and these snickerdoodle no bake treats are no exception! They taste just like cookie dough and are gluten free, dairy free and blood sugar friendly, meaning they will not spike your blood sugar! These protein balls come together in just a few minutes and can be made into adorable pumpkin shapes for Fall.
