Two Healthy Dessert Recipes To Try

Here are two recipes you can try to make your weekend deliciously sweet.

1. Protein Bar: Protein-Packed Bliss

Protein bar is an excellent way to refuel your body after a workout or satisfy your midday hunger cramps. The best part is you can make them at home with just a few simple ingredients, including 1 cup of rolled oats, ½ cup of vanilla protein powder, ½ cup of almond butter, ¼ cup of honey/maple syrup, ¼ cup of dried cranberries, ¼ cup of chopped nuts, ¼ cup of dark chocolate chips, and a pinch of salt. 

Instructions: You need a mixing bowl to combine rolled oats and protein powder. Heat almond butter and honey (or maple syrup) for about 20 seconds. Pour the almond butter and honey mixture into the oats and protein powder batter. Stir well until everything is combined. Add the dark chocolate chips, chopped nuts, dried cranberries (or raisins), and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Line a square baking dish with parchment paper and press the mixture into it. Ensure that everything is evenly spread and compacted. Place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the bars to set. Once set, cut the mixture into bars or square shapes. Store the protein bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator and serve when needed. Also, if you want a quick result without spending hours baking and cooking, click here.

2. Monster Cookies: One of the Most Healthy Dessert Recipes

Monster cookies are a classic favorite, but we’ve given them a healthy twist by reducing the sugar and adding nutritious ingredients, such as 1 cup of old-fashioned oats, 1/2 cup of almond flour, 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of peanut butter (or almond butter for a variation), 1/4 cup of shredded coconut, 1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips, 1/2 tsp of vanilla extracts, 1/2 tsp of baking soda, 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (e.g., pecans, cashews), 1/4 cup of dried fruit (e.g., cranberries, apricot), and a pinch of salt.

Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine oats, almond flour, honey, applesauce, peanut (or almond) butter, vanilla extract, baking soda, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Mix until well blended. Fold in dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut, chopped nuts, and dried fruit. Use a spoon to drop cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. If baking is not your thing, you can try our Monster Cookies at an affordable price.
