Protein yogurt cookie dough bowl
This healthy plant protein, cookie dough bowl is high in fiber and high in protein with dark chocolate for a bit of indulgence, plus it’s much better than store bought and great for after a workout!
You can also smoosh this together into one big serving rather than rolling into individual bits
Made using healthy, natural ingredients plus if you use a probiotic yogurt then it’s good for your gut too.
Note: This won’t work with whey protein as its not as absorbent as plant protein so it wont bind
Healthy hazelnut chocolate truffles
These homemade, healthier versions of Ferrero Rocher are a great treat to have handy in your fridge for when you fancy something indulgent and need a choccy hit fast!
They use only 5 main ingredients, can be refined sugar free (I used a 70% chocolate brand that uses coconut sugar) and vegan friendly plus contain fiber meaning a slower energy release too! Your body will thank you for this one.
Matcha chocolate chip banana bread
This super healthy, high fiber matcha banana bread with dark chocolate chunks takes a normal banana bread to the next level with a health boost!
Matcha is green tea powder which some people may not be a fan of normally but it’s so good for you so sneaking it in where you can is highly beneficial. For an overview of matcha/green tea benefits see my old post here.
I have also added some plant protein to my version to balance out the macros but you can also stick to wholemeal flour if you prefer. I absolutely loved making this recipe multiple times over the past few weeks as when I do, I have breakfast sorted for a 3 days and it’s lovely slathered in peanut butter!
