Clean Eat Recipe: Peanut Butter Balls

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
• 2 Tbsp honey
• 5/8 cup dark chocolate, broken into pieces
• 1 1/4 tsp coconut oil

Directions:

1. Mix peanut butter and honey together using an electric mixer until thick (approx 1 minute).

2. Roll into balls and freeze for at least 45 minutes.

3. Combine chocolate chips and coconut oil and heat in microwave for 1 minute. Stir. Heat in microwave for another minute (or until melted).

4. Let chocolate/coconut oil mixture sit out for approx 10 minutes to slightly harden.

5. Once balls are chilled, dip in chocolate mixture.

6. Place balls into the refrigerator to chill.

Note: I made mine into quarter-size balls which made approx 16-18 balls.

Snickerdoodle Crescent Rollups

Ingredients:

1/4 cup coconut oil

3 ounces of plain greek yogurt

1/4 cup Ideal Brown No Calorie Sweetener (Xylitol)

1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract (avoid HFCS)

dash of sea salt (approx 1/16 tsp)

3/4+ cup Almond Meal/Flour

----

Unsweetened Almond milk (for brushing rolls)

1 Tbsp Ideal Brown No Calorie Sweetener (Xylitol)

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

Directions:

1. Beat coconut oil and greek yogurt in a large bowl with an electric mixer for 30 seconds.

2. Add Xylitol, vanilla, and salt and continue to beat until mixed.

3. Slowly add almond meal/flour as you continue to beat the mixture - a dough will form.

4. Divide the dough into 2 round portions. Cover and chill in refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Once dough is chilled:

5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

6. With a lightly floured surface, roll each ball of dough into 7-in rounds.  Lightly brush with milk to assimilate flour into dough.

7. Combine Xylitol, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Lightly sprinkle mixture evenly over dough.

8. Cut each round into 8 wedges.  Roll up each wedge starting with the wide end. Place cookies 1-in apart on a cookie sheet to bake.

9. Bake for 14-16 minutes.

10. Enjoy!
