Easy high protein BLUEBERRY BAGELS 🥯🫐 I made high protein everything bagels in the air fryer a few weeks ago, and they turned out SO good I had to try a new flavor! These bagels are so easy to make - they don’t need to rise, you don’t need to boil them… they are just SO EASY! And turn out absolutely delicious! 😋 Each bagel also has 10g of protein which I love because it makes them a little more well-rounded and filling! Makes 4 bagels: ~200 calories, 10g protein, 33g carb, 3g fat each Note - these aren’t sweet bagels, they just have a hint of blueberry flavor (most store-bought blueberry bagels have artificial flavor added!) If you want a sweeter bagel, add 1 tbsp of stevia/monkfruit/sugar to the dough! Ingredients: - 1 + 1/4 cups all purpose flour - 1 1/2 tsp baking powder - 1/4 tsp salt - 1 cup plain nonfat greek yogurt - 1/4 cup blueberries (I used frozen) - 1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil How to: - Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a bowl and stir together. - Add the greek yogurt and stir until the dough comes together in a ball, then fold in the blueberries. - Knead the dough into a ball, then sprinkle flour on to your counter and press the dough into a ball. You can sprinkle on extra flour if the dough is too sticky. - Slice the dough into 4 pieces, then form each piece into a bagel shape. - Brush the tops of each bagel with melted butter or coconut oil. - Line air fryer basket with parchment paper, add the bagels (try not to let them touch). - Air fry at 350F for 20 minutes, flipping halfway so both sides get golden brown. Or bake in the oven at 350F for 30 mins! - Let cool for a few minutes and enjoy! 🫶 #healthyrecipes #easyrecipe #highprotein #bagels #highproteinbagels #easyrecipe #healthycooking #breakfast

HEALTHY CHICKEN NUGGETS 🍗🔥😋(gf & low carb!) You guys know I LOVE making healthier versions of my favorite foods, and chicken nuggets are definitely at the top of my list (and my husbands!!) I have made them a few different ways in the past, but these almond flour chicken nuggets are my FAVORITE! They are so easy to make in one bowl (no messy dipping stations), and they are SO crispy and delicious! Bonus points because using almond flour also means they are gluten free, and low carb! I hope you enjoy 🫶 Ingredients: - 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast - 1/2 tbsp olive oil - 1/2 cup almond flour - 1 tsp paprika - 1/2 tsp garlic powder - 1/2 tsp onion powder - 1/2 tsp salt - olive oil spray How to: - Slice the chicken breast into 1-2 inch cubes. - Add the chicken to a mixing bowl and toss in 1/2 of a tbsp of olive oil. - In a small bowl mix together the almond flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and salt. - Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken, and toss well to coat. You will see that some of the breading goes to the bottom of the bowl, but just keep tossing until most of it is stuck to the chicken. - Spray the bottom of your air fryer basket with olive oil. Add the chicken in a single layer, then spray the tops with olive oil. - Air fry at 400F for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Toss gently halfway so the bottoms get crispy too! Serve with your favorite sauce (recipe for healthier chick-fil-a sauce below) and enjoy! To make the healthier chick-fil-a sauce just whisk together: - 3 tbsp plain greek yogurt - 1 tbsp avocado oil mayo - 1 tsp mustard - 1 tbsp bbq sauce - 1 tbsp honey #healthyrecipes #easyrecipes #healthyeating #cleaneating #healthycooking #chickennuggets #airfryer #airfryerrecipe #highprotein #mealprep #healthychickennuggets
