We really love the benefit of grab and go snacks. Especially when they're filled with great nutrition, fiber, and protein.
A recipe like this is one that is simple enough that it can be replicated all the time, and tasty enough that you'll want to make it, well, all the time.
It has a 20 minute prep time, and only a 25 minute bake time. After that, it cools for a moment, then you can freeze or refrigerate it.
Grab an d go doesn't have to be a healthy luxury, it can be easy with a recipe like this one.
Needless to say, when I called my grandma and told her I was attempting to make buckeyes healthy, her one request was that I do "my best to keep the taste the same."
I did it. After a bit of trial and error, lots of recipe looking up online, and plenty of research, I found the best health high protein peanut butter buckeye recipe.
Buckeyes are a combination of a peanut butter nougat that has been dipped in chocolate. A buckeye should be soft, delicious, and hit the sweet spot. They're smaller in size, think protein ball, and less of protein bar.
They've always been a hit at every function I've made them for. So, to have a healthier alternative is a win for me.
This recipe went viral on TikTok and we have to agree with the masses - IT IS GOOD. It's gluten free, and it's a fun dessert like breakfast that screams healthy.
Aside from being delicious, it's almost super rich in minerals, protein, and healthy goodies.
When this was baking in my oven, I had the entire family coming over to ask me what I was making because it smelled so good!
In a world filled with delicious cooler weather treats, these protein cinnamon rolls really elevate my winter weather treat status.
As soon as these were ready, my family gobbled these up instantly. Then, the next day, the requests came flying in again. My toddler was begging for "cinnman circles," and my son was salivating when I pulled my second batch out.
Cinnamon rolls have been notoriously known for being devilishly good. But I thought, well, how can I make these a little bit healthier? And that’s when this idea hit me.
Cake. Candy Canes. Sprinkles. Yep- I'm here for it. ESPECIALLY if it's got protein and nutrients in it.
The holiday season tends to disrupt my normal diet. I've been on a slow and steady health journey over the last year and I'd like to keep myself going strong, even during my weakness: HOLIDAY TREAT SEASON.
Over this past year, I made a really great and simple healthy cake pop recipe that I keep revisiting with different toppings and tasty accessories. So when I was brainstorming which dessert to have in the refrigerator for my sweet tooth this season, using this recipe was a no brainer.
The smell. The taste. The coloring. For me - anything gingerbread is a sign that the holiday's are coming.
I've been on this healthy treat kick for a few months now. For me, I can't help but over indulge during the holiday season. I adore all the foods, drinks, and desserts that come with the winter months. I'm also aboard a "get healthier" train so this years treats and recipes are all coming from a healthier stand point.
If there's a way that I can enjoy my favorite holiday treats but the healthier versions of them - I'm going to do it.
And that’s where these gingerbread protein energy balls come into play.
