Healthy Cookie Dough Ingredients
Only made with 4 ingredients!
Chickpeas- I use canned
Peanut Butter- Look for all natural, organic peanut butter
substitutions- almond or cashew
Honey- All natural honey
substitutions: maple or agave syrup
Dark Chocolate Chips- I use 70-80% cacao
substitutions: dark chocolate bar
How Each Ingredient Benefits Us:
Chickpeas- a great source of plant-based protein with one cup providing 14 grams. It also contains all essential amino acids except for methionine. Additionally, chickpeas provide varieties of vitamins and minerals and are high in fiber. Plus, they are perfect to add to bowls to receive additional nutrients.
Peanut Butter- 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- contains antioxidants, minerals, and enzymes. It is also shown that honey can soothe coughs, sore throats and treat wounds. Plus, it is super easy to add honey in your diet, and pairs well with yogurt, oats, baking, etc.
Dark chocolate- containing 70% of cacao, is a powerful source of antioxidants. Research has also shown that consuming dark chocolate can improve cardiovascular health and lower blood pressure.
