Air Fryer Sopapillas

March 8, 2023 Amanda Plott

Everyone loves a good Sopapilla after some tasty Mexican food. And these Air Fryer Sopapillas are not only easy to make, they also only take a handful of ingredients and just a few minutes of cook time. Being as there’s only a handful ingredients, there really isn’t much you can do to make them much ‘better for you’.

Sometimes you just need to indulge just a little bit. But, even with that being said? You get four of these to a serving that’s well under two-hundred calories. Dust them in some cinnamon sugar and a little bit of hunny and you’ve got an amazing dessert!…

Instant Pot Chocolate Lava Cakes

Yep. That’s right, you can make delicious chocolate lava cakes right in your pressure cooker in no time at all. These Instant Pot Chocolate Lava Cakes couldn’t be more simple to make with just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time you can have dessert ready to impress! What’s better is that these cakes are low carb naturally.

I lightened these up by swapping out ALL of the sugar for a natural sweetener. I went with a stevia that measures cup for cup like sugar, but you could really go with any natural sweeter that measures just the same…

Air Fryer S'mores

It’s true. You don’t need a campfire to make a s’more! You can make a s’more in the comfort of your home with the same basic ingredients and an air fryer. One of the best parts is that you can have several of them done at the same time with no fussing around with sticks! Being as s’mores only require a whopping three ingredients, there isn’t much to make better-for-you here outside of the chocolate and graham crackers.

I went with a low fat graham and you can definitely swap in some dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate here too. Outside of that? A s’more is a s’more…

Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookie Cups

These Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookie Cups are my JAM. Hah. Get it? I’m feeling extra punny today apparently. So these cookie cups are similar to one I did back a few months ago, but instead of hazelnut spread I decided to go with PB&J! Because who doesn’t like a good peanut butter and jelly anything? Well, other than the poor folks who are allergic. Which if you are? This obviously isn’t the recipe for you.

Now. These cookie cups start off with a refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough. It’s proportioned and ready to go so it makes life super simple. Just pop the dough into the mini cupcake pans and bake away…

Pumpkin Spice Blondies + Maple Bourbon Cream Sauce

November 25, 2022 Amanda Plott

I know it’s after Thanksgiving and ‘pumpkin spice’ season, but look… I just HAD to share this dessert. These Pumpkin Spice Blondies are AMAZE and the cream sauce is something I think I could bathe in. To be completely honest, you should make this dessert at all times of the year. Fall or other wise. It’s great leading into Thanksgiving, but also great to lead the way out too.

So what’s a blondie anyway? It’s basically a vanilla based brownie. This one is loaded up wit pumpkin and spice and everything nice. Including pecans and bourbon. Yep! I’ve managed to sneak some bourbon into the cream sauce and I’m not sorry about it. Not even for a second…

2 Ingredient Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookie Cups

November 6, 2022 Amanda Plott

It just doesn’t get any more simple than this when it comes to cookies, folks. These 2 Ingredient Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookie Cups are the easiest cookies I’ve ever put together. And they’re super tasty too! When starting these cookie cups off, I picked up some refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough that was pre-made so that there was less fuss on my end.

After that, they were baked, shaped into cookie cups, and then filled with hazelnut spread. You can eat these warm, or directly out of the fridge for a nice cool sweet bite since they can be stored in the fridge for a few days after being made. They’re a great grab-and-go snack to have on hand…
