Chocolate chip peanut butter cookies recipe

 

Love peanut butter and chocolate? Try these guilt-free chocolate chip peanut butter cookies for a treat by Heidi Cannon.

What you'll need

  • ½ cup apple sauce 
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 3 tbsp chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups oatmeal 
  • 1 sachet Stevia sweetener
  • 1 cup chocolate protein powder

What you'll do

Mix ingredients and bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown (these cookies bake fast, so keep a close watch on the oven). 

Heidi's protein baking intel:

1. Always pre-spray any cooking tin or sheet as protein loves to stick! I use coconut oil or low-fat cooking spray. It also helps to use a non-stick baking dish or sheet.

2. Watch your baking. All ovens cook differently, so check them every five to 10 minutes to ensure optimal results.

3. Freeze. Because these recipes have no butter, flour or sugar, they don’t typically stay as well preserved as regular cakes and cookies. If you won’t get through 48 cookies in a few days (a-hem), freeze the rest and thaw as you need them. They’ll still taste great.

Title: What is the Best Exercise for Weight Loss?

             What is the Best Exercise for Weight Loss? by John Freech It is a common misconception that aerobic exercise tones and firms muscles. Actually it accomplishes very little toning and firming. Resistance exercise (weight training) is where real toning and firming of muscles occurs. Doing both aerobics and weight training is the optimal way to lose more fat and gain more muscle. If you are trying to lose weight, studies show that weight loss increases by 56 percent with aerobic and strength exercises combined. Muscle may weigh more, but when you increase your muscle composition, the body is able to burn more fat, even when you are resting, because your metabolism is higher. A pound of muscle will use 350 to 500 calories per week to survive, while a pound of fat only needs about 14 calories per week. New studies have shown that building muscle helps your body fight disease better, too. Strength training benefits everyone, no ma...
