Macro Friendly Desserts
While we’re all staying at home, baking is taking over. Whether you’re bored, missing those tasty desserts, or wanting to get creative with your diet – I’ve got you! Macro-friendly desserts are the perfect way to cure that sweet tooth while not feeling to guilty. Since we aren’t able to go to the gym, either, eating clean is more important than ever. Abs are made in the kitchen (for real, 80% diet and 20% gym to get that six pack and booty) but that doesn’t mean you have to give up everything.
Instead of opting for a block of chocolate or your favorite red velvet cake, whip up one of these desserts to soothe your sweet cravings while staying healthy! You can thank me later. 😉
2-Ingredient Vegan Protein Cookie Dough
Any recipe that includes 2-ingredients is the recipe for me. Make it customizable by adding in spices like cinnamon or nutmeg! She also includes a few of her favorite ingredients for low-calorie desserts in the blog post which is SO helpful.
Double Chocolate Cookie Dough Bars
These look oh so heavenly. And the ingredients? Yes please! These are sweetened with maple syrup and some semi-sweet chocolate chips and don’t take long at all to go from whisking to eating.
Oatmeal Banana Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies
This recipe is so easy and I can guarantee you have all the ingredients in your kitchen already! They call for protein powder which is awesome for growing that booty (see this post for more info) and these are tasty AF.
Maple Almond Collagen Cookies
Collagen is such an easy source of protein and I love the use of maple syrup in this recipe. Adds the perfect amount of sweetness and the flavor is so warm! You won’t believe the amount of ingredients and how SIMPLE it is to make these.
Nutty Cookie Dough Balls
You’ll need a blender or food processor to finish this recipe but, this recipe will satisfy your sweet tooth to no end! All it requires is some nut butter, almond meal, chocolate chips, and vanilla.
Chocolate Berry Mousse
Just the name of this dessert has me craving. The main ingredient for this mousse is…avocado! You know it’s going to be creamy and the perfect amount of sweetness.
