White Chocolate & Lavender Bites

White Chocolate & Lavender Bites

A note from Chef Ivan:
Spring is around the corner; enjoy these white chocolate blondies, with a hint of lavender, as a bedtime snack or a workout recovery. For more health benefits, add a dash of turmeric and black pepper for some anti-inflammatory power.”

These delicious blondies are going to be a fan favorite. We love this healthy dessert because it’s a guilt free treat you can have anytime. Here’s what makes these blondies nutritious while satisfying that sweet tooth:

  • They’re made with chickpeas. They’re an excellent source of protein, fibre, and important vitamins and minerals, including iron and folate. The combination of plant protein and fibre can keep you feeling full, manage blood sugar levels, and support digestion.
  • They’re sweetened with agave syrup. This natural sweetener has fewer calories than white sugar and a lower glycemic index – meaning it doesn’t spike your blood sugar as much, making it a healthier alternative.
  • They have one thing most desserts lack is protein, but not this one. Iron Vegan’s Athlete’s Blend features 30 grams of vegan protein with a remarkably smooth and creamy taste – making it a great addition in sweet treats!

These calming and delicious blondies are a treat you can feel great about. Here’s what you need to make them.
