If you’re like me, you’re always trying to sneak in some protein & veggies on your picky toddler! And if you’re not a parent, but still like me, you’re always looking for a sweet treat that doesn’t carry any guilt! Well, voila – here you go!
These tasty chocolate mini muffins are just the thing!! With protein powder + beet puree, there’s little to feel bad about while indulging in these! Plus, everyone is sure to love them – toddlers, kids, adults alike. No one will taste the beets, these are GF and can easily be DF as well (just use a dairy free protein powder – my favorite here).
Enjoy!
