Juice Pulp Dark Chocolate Chip Muffins

So I juice everyday so my pulp leftover builds up-I either freeze it or store in fridge to make some muffins. I stick with the fruit or sweet veggies for my muffins. This leftover pulp for this recipe was carrots, apple, orange, pineapple, and some greens. I pick through to get the right colors to know what veggies/fruits are which.

Juice Pulp Chocolate Chip Muffins:

1-1 1/2 c pulp (or just grate some carrots)

2 egg whites 

2 flax eggs (2tbsp flax + 6 tbsp water, let sit to gel up) or 2 more egg whites 

1 tbsp chia seeds soaked with 1 tbsp water (optional)

4 stevia packets

2 c coarse oat flour (grind up oats)

1 tsp baking soda

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1/4 c 'Enjoy life' Dairy Free Soy Free Nut free Dark Chocolate Chips

 

1. I put my pulp in the food processor jut to smooth it out a bit but not completely smooth. Pulse in eggs, flax eggs, and chia seed gel.

2. Mix oats, soda, powder, cinnamon.

4. Add pulp mixture to oat mix.

5. Mix well then fold in the dark chocolate.

6. Bake 350 for 20mins. I make 12 muffins with this recipe.

7. Allow to cool completely. I leave mine in the oven overnight. 

Baked Apple Chips

These are my new addiction...I make about two apples every day! (video how-to below)

Baked Apple Chips:

-apple (any type works)

-toppings: spices (cinnamon, apple spice, pumpkin spice, nutmeg), cocoa powder, honey, stevia

.preheat oven at 250F.

.slice apple thin with knife or you can use a mandoline.

.spray a baking sheet with coconut oil or whatever you have.

.lay slices down on sheet.

.add topping. I used one apple with cinnamon & stevia, one with pumpkin spice & stevia, and another with cocoa powder and stevia.

.place in oven. 

.bake for 1 hour.

.take out and flip slices.

.bake for another hour or depending on how thick you it them maybe an hour and a half. 

.take out and allow to cool. They will harden up.

Eat them plain or what I do is dip them in my his seed vanilla berry jelly and some nut butter. Just the awesome-ist snack! Or I also had them with my homemade protein ice cream where I used the chips as dippers! Dip in oatmeal or protein mousse or protein pudding...uhh I can go on! 

Carrot Cake in a bowl

Yummm I've been having a different version if this every Sunday because it's so good! 

I had some leftover steamed carrots so I wanted to add them into my smoothie.

Carrot Cake Smoothie:

1 c ice

1 banana 

1/2c liquid (I did half water half coconut milk)

1 scoop vanilla protein (I used cellucor)

10 cold steamed mini carrots 

Dashes of pumpkin spice & cinnamon 

*add all to blender

As you can see I LOVE cinnamon!

*blend up until really smooth!

So to finish my bowl, I pour some type up puffed cereal (this is puffed wheat), and I added a handful of my paleo crunch too.

*pour smoothie right over

Protein Stuffed Baked Apple

🍎Protein Stuffed Baked Apple🍎

-core out apple (cut out enough to stuff). I used a knife but you can start with an apple corer. 

-spread nut butter inside (I used my homemade cinnamon-maple pecan butter). Any nut butter works.

-Filling: 1 egg white, 1 tbsp cinnamon swirl protein, 1 tbsp almond meal. Mix and pour in apple, (this is why you need to carve out enough apple).

-set apple in bake-able dish. Sprinkle with cinnamon, (next time I may drizzle with maple syrup so it caramelizes).

-bake 350 for 40mins.

-cut in half and top with whatever: honey, maple syrup, granola, cocoa nibs...etc. 

-I topped mine with my Paleo Crunch, which was yesterday's post!
