Happy Slappy Not My Birthday Protein Cake


Dear Sweet Delicious Cake, 

I am going to eat you. I am going to eat all of you. 

I've been really enjoying baking some protein and macro friendly goodies lately. It's a fun way to get in protein without always having a protein bar, I'm always just afraid that it won't turn out great, however, no huge, inedible flops as of yet! 

So with Slappy Birthday protein powder in hand, I knew a funfetti protein cake of sorts was in order. It had a really good typical cake flavor but it was a little dry. Then, I looked at the ingredients I had planned out and I had planned for 1/2 cup of almond milk but I only actually used 1/4 cup. If I make it again, I'll probably try a little more liquid, so feel free to adapt or experiment with this recipe and let me know how it turns out!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Kodiak Cakes protein pancake mix
  • 1 scoop Slappy Birthday Slap nutrition protein powder
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk 
  • 1 egg yolk (yes, the yolk!)
  • 1/8 tsp imitation butter flavor
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder 
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp rainbow sprinkles
Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a ramekin with non stick cooking spray. 
2. In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix. I used a hand mixer to eliminate lumps and work. Pour batter into the prepared ramekin.
3. Bake for approximately 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let it cool. 
4. Devour. 



Macros for half the cake:
196 calories 4.6f18.4c/21p and only 3.5g sugar, sprinkles included!
 
Cream Cheese Icing:

  • 1/4 cup fat free cream cheese
  • stevia or alternate sweetener to taste
  • about 1 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk 
  • 1/4 tsp imitation butter flavor
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract 
Macros for half the icing:
31 caloies .1f/3c/4p

Now you really can have your cake and eat it too!

P.S. Imitation butter flavor is off the chain.

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don
