Ingredients
Scale
For The Healthy Cookie Dough Bites:
- 3/4 cup almond flour (not regular flour*)
- 1/4 cup butter, vegan butter, or coconut oil, softened
- 2 Tbsp honey (or pure maple syrup)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
For the nice cream
- 4 frozen ripe bananas, cut into slices (we like to freeze them like this)
- 1/4 cup milk, or more if needed (I use unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk)
Instructions
For the cookie dough:
- Line a plate with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, stir together butter/oil, honey, vanilla, and salt until well mixed and creamy. Mix in the almond flour. Stir in chocolate chips. Mixture will be fairly soft.
- Use a teaspoon to make tiny little balls. Place in the freezer for 20-30 minutes, or until firm.
For the nice cream:
- When you’re ready for the ice cream, place bananas and milk into a blender or food processor. Process until smooth, adding more milk as necessary. Stir in cookie dough balls to taste and enjoy immediately!
