Trust me on this combo. It’s vegan, gluten-free, and refined sugar free which means your sweet tooth is satisfied without the guilt (and it takes barely any time to prepare!) đŸ€©:

The best part? This đŸ« treat won’t spike your blood sugar thanks to the low glycemic index (and scrumptious combo of fiber + protein)! It’s super easy to throw together, and keeps in the freezer until you’re craving a sweet + salty bark with a bite:

  • 🐣 1 Can of chickpeas (rinsed and drained) then roasted for 25 min. in a 400 degree oven. I rolled them in a little EVOO and a sprinkle of cinnamon and salt. Keep them in until they get crispy – it makes for the best crunch!
  • 🌰 handful of roasted pistachios. Did you know they’re ultra rich in potassium, B6 and antioxidants?! 
  • đŸ« bag of @hukitchen vegan dark chocolate bites! They melt so beautifully and I reserved a few to sprinkle on top before the freezer for extra texture. 
  • ⭐ Another sprinkle of cinnamon and pop in the freezer for 20 minutes. Once fully cooled, break it into pieces & enjoy!
