Healthy Cookie Dough Bites Ingredient Benefits
Chickpeas- Chickpeas are a great source of plant-based protein and fiber, which can help support digestion. They are rich in essential vitamins and minerals, such as folate, iron, and magnesium, contributing to overall well-being and energy levels. Additionally, chickpeas have a low glycemic index, making them a great choice for regulating blood sugar levels and supporting heart health.
Peanut Butter- Peanut butter is a great source of protein and healthy fats. It also is loaded with vitamins and minerals, which are essential for the body. Additionally, it is high in fiber which aids better digestion. Since, most peanut butters have added ingredients like sugar or oil, the best option is to buy it with peanuts only.
Honey- Honey is a natural sweetener with a variety of health benefits, including being rich in antioxidants, and supporting good digestive health. Honey can also be used as a fast source of energy because it’s composed of simple sugars. Plus, honey has been used to heal wounds and soothe coughs/sore throats.
