Protein Pumpkin Cheesecake

😍Protein Pumpkin Cheesecake😘

This idea has been floating around so I decided to recreate my own version.

Crust:

1 1/2c Ezekiel cereal (blended to flour)-could use oats or granola or nut flour 

 2 servings vanilla or cinnamon protein cinnamon (I used 4sc @wfitnutrition vanilla coconut)

2 spoonfuls each maple syrup & nut butter

2 heaping spoonfuls coconut oil

Cheesecake:

2c greek yogurt (I used 1c of caramel apple Lite & Fit, 1c plain)

1/2 c pumpkin

2 eggs

2 egg whites

2 servings vanilla/cinnamon protein

Coconut sugar

Cinnamon, pumpkin spice

➡️Nuke oil, nut butter, and syrup. Pour over dry crust ingr. and use your hands to mix. Add some to each muffin tin or pan and form around bottom/sides. Blend all the cheesecake ingr. together until smooth (It'll be runny, shouldn't be thick). Pour over crust.

Bake 300 for 20-30mins. I constantly checked it. I knew it was done when the top was set but the middle was still lightly jiggly. I left it out for a few hour the refrigerate overnight, do not eat until it's set! 

This made 12 mini muffins and a full pie!

Chocolate Protein Waffles

I use WFitNutrition protein so you can use any flavor of choclate you want.

2 scoops Wfit choc mocha protein

2 tbsp coconut flour

2 egg whites

1 mashed banana

Dash baking powder

Stevia 

Almond milk

-Mash banana first. Add baking powder and mix (easily mixed this way).

-add egg whites.

-add one scoop of protein at a time and add almond milk to mix. Then add the other.

-add coconut flour. One tbsp at a time. Add almond milk as needed. It'll thicken because coconut flour absorbs so you'll need more milk after it sets.

-add stevia if you want.

-stir in add ins if you want. I added cacao nibs to mine.

-pour into sprayed waffle maker. Mine made two.

I use coconut oil spray.

Added PB and strawberries to the first one.

Second one stuck so I had to scrap it off but it was a little burnt and crunchy so it was a nice topping on the other. Of course I added more strawberries and drizzle of PB.

Homemade Quest Bars

I have received a shipment from BioNeutra of VitaFiber. I wrote a post (here)completely about the product so refer to it for more info on what it is and where to get it!

I have made many many different flavors but here is the foundation.

"Quest Bars" Basic Recipe:

 

-2tbsp VitaFiber syrup

-1/4c protein powder

-1 tsp extract

Optional Add Ins=nuts, choc chips, stevia flavors, cinnamon, cookie pieces, dried fruit, cocoa powder, maple syrup etc.

.Heat the liquids for about 20 secs. Microwave works just fine-about 15-18 secs until it starts to bubble.

 .Add protein and any add ins. (Make sure to have premixed the protein and add-ins prior to dumping Ito the syrup)

.Using a spoon at first, start to mix.

.Wet hands, start to mush the dough together. It will be crumbly but work with it. You have to knead it to combine to thoroughly mix the liquid all into the protein. 

.Once it comes together in a ball, form into a bar.

.Wrap in parchment papers or press into a silicon mold and put in fridge to set.

Protein Brownies

I make these once a week because they are THAT good and THAT easy and THAT healthy!

I receive new protein so I decided to make them using WfitNutrition Chocolate mocha protein. 

I change up the recipe weekly by changing the protein flavors or the extracts.

Protein Brownies:

1 can rinsed/drained black beans

2 eggs

2 1/2 scoops WfitNutrition chocolate mocha protein 

2tbsp melted coconut oil 

1/2c (or so) almond milk

1 tbsp vanilla extract (or peppermint or butter or almond or any really)

1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

Stevia 

1. In a blender, add beans, eggs, almond milk, extract, coconut oil and stevia. Blend until really smooth and all the black bits are gone. 

2. Add cocoa. Blend. Need more liquid? Drizzle in some almond milk while blending.

3. Add half a scoop at a time while blender is on. Add almond milk as needed. 

4. Pour into lined 8X8 pan or a cake pan. 

5. Bake 350 for 18-20mins. I pull mine out at about 18. Allow to cool before cutting. I get 8 bars out of it.

I really want to double the recipe and use two cake pans and create a layered chocolate cake with a paleo coconut cream frosting...maybe that's to come!
