I made these ages ago, and the photos are kind of lackluster. But this space has been quiet, and it needs a little something.
This is like those creamy vegan cheesecakes, and it tastes like a chocolatey nutella-covered strawberry.
I totally meant to post these back when it was Girl Scout cookie season…but clearly it is now many months past that.
You can thank my stupid school taking over my life (my go-to excuse).
Anyway, these cookies are as phenomenal as they look. These are everything you love about peanut butter patties but way better! Everything is better when it’s homemade and healthy. This I know.
These are nothing short of amazing.
Seriously, the amount of self-restraint I need for these is ridiculous.
I know you probably have a hard time believing that since the pictures aren’t the most enticing, but if you’ve tried any of PaleOMG’s recipes before, you know her recipes aren’t something to joke around about. Trust me and make these brownies.
Basically, I found myself with a bag of peanut flour and not a clue how to use it.
This cookie recipe was on the side of the bag. After modifying it to make a smaller batch and to use coconut sugar as a more natural sweetener, I definitely think it’s a recipe worth coming back to again and again. It’s still the only use I’ve found for the peanut flour, but I’m not too mad about it.
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve tried to make black bean brownies fulfill my chewy fudge brownie expectations.
I adore this recipe because it is the healthiest iteration yet. It doesn’t use any refined sugar, instead relying on honey for sweetness.
When it first comes out of the oven, it is pretty cakey and light–definitely not my idea of a good brownie. But as it cools, it magically becomes denser and fudgier. I love these cold straight from the fridge.
Healthy bite-sized hunks of peanut butter cookie dough studded with dark chocolate and super simple to make.
I love these as a high protein and high fiber snack. (Speaking of healthy snacks…) After chilling in the fridge, the texture is seriously just like cookie dough! The magic of coconut flour.
It’s a fact.
Still on the new year healthy train? Let me help you out with that!
One of my biggest downfalls in trying to eat healthy is succumbing to ALL THE SNACKS. So the best way to do this is to be prepared with snacks that won’t take me down a rabbit hole of chocolate chips. Or a whole box of sugary granola (not that I’d know anything about that).
As all the fitness magazines say, small frequent meals are the key to keeping that hangry desperation for anything you can get your hands on at bay. Here are some great ideas!
Something about these little yogurt dots is just so aesthetically pleasing. This makes eating your probiotics about a million times more fun.
Homemade peanut butter. Nut butters = MY FAV!!! I love adding my own custom flavors, like cinnamon, vanilla, honey, maple syrup, cocoa powder…oh the possibilities. Try to resist the peanut butter spoon + chocolate chips path. I know, it happens to the best of it. But willpower! And maybe pair it with an apple or banana instead.
Creamy, dreamy, one-ingredient banana ice cream. It wouldn’t be so popular if it didn’t work!
A chocolate version of banana ice cream–seriously, just bananas + cocoa powder.
Is there a more quintessential snack than chips? Way cheaper than the bags of apple chips full of air at the grocery store.
More chips! For your salty and crunchy cravings.
Last veggie chip, I SWEAR! haha but seriously, try them. Zucchini chips are much better than you ever imagined!
Chewy granola bars! One of my favorite snacks growing up were THE chewy granola bars. Chocolate chip of course. These are MUCH healthier and homemade.
I love having healthy muffins on hand! These are paleo and packed with veggies, for those of you who are into that. It’s like a hybrid of carrot cake and zucchini bread. For more muffins, click here.
Chocolate chia pudding! Still hard to believe sometimes that nutrient-packed chia seeds can create such a perfect pudding! Full of omega-3 healthy fats and fiber. Plus, you can serve it blended, or not blended–both options are delish!
A pumpkin spice version, because I believe pumpkin spice flavored things are appropriate ALL year round.
Leaving a batch of honey nut vanilla granola in my house is just asking for trouble. This is SO clustery and SO addictive!
Chocolate chip SNACK CAKE. Cake as a snack?? Am I crazy? Not when there’s a whole can of chickpeas in there! (Now you probably think I’m crazy for putting the beans in there). Despite the beans, this cake is still fluffy and lightly sweet.
First I’m suggesting you eat cake as a snack, and now I present you with cookies. But these carrot cake cookies are healthy enough to eat for breakfast!
Honey cinnamon roasted chickpeas.
And last but not least…my favorite snack of all time: LARABARS! Three flavor options for you:
Chocolate Chip Mocha Brownie Larabars
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Larabars.
And straight up classic Chocolate Fudge Larabar.
I hope this barrage of ideas inspired you to prep and eat some delicious healthy snacks!! I promise that while healthy, none of these recipes are lacking in the flavor department. For more healthy snacking info and ideas, check out this page at NUTS.COM
