Flourless Peanut Butter Thumbprint Cookies (Vegan)

Flourless Peanut Butter Thumbprint Cookies.  I had some leftover peanut butter I needed to use up so I whipped these delicious cookies!

From start to finish it’s only 20 minutes!  They are also gluten free and paleo friendly.

To keep these paleo friendly, all you need to do is use another nut butter, or just use sunflower butter. I will be trying them with cashew butter next time.

I am a lover of all things pumpkin. How about you?  Especially when we are talking about healthy pumpkin recipes.  These Iced Pumpkin Cookies are made healthier.  You would never guess by the taste.  These remind of those sinful soft batch cookies from the grocery store. You know the kind I am talking about, right?  Back in the day, I could inhale a lot of those!!  This is my healthier, pumpkin version of those cookies.   I hope you enjoy them as well.

Homemade Aussie Bites (Vegan)

Homemade Aussie Bites.  Have you heard of Aussie Bites?  It’s a treat made from Costco.  I made you some Homemade Vegan Aussie Bites!  I have actually never had the real thing, but people in my Facebook group have been raving about them!

So I made my recipe based off the ingredient list.  My recipe is easy, has fewer ingredients, no flour and no oil!  These are seriously good you guys!

You need to try them.  If you like energy bites, you may also like my Almond Joy Energy Bites or my Grain Free Energy Bites. These are a must try!
