Healthy Apple Pie Yogurt Brûlée {7 Ingredients!}

by 28 Comments

Do you crave something sweet for breakfast? Have no fear! You can make this Healthy Apple Pie Yogurt Brûlée in a few minutes!

I LOVE greek yogurt for breakfast (now this apple pie yogurt brulee is my new obsession!)!  Its one of the few things that actually keep me full for at least 3 hours. But I’m completely serious when I say NOTHING feels me up quite like a big bowl of greek yogurt does.

 I’ve tried every breakfast food, from three egg omelets, oatmeal with a ginormous amount of PB, five multi-grain pancakes with bacon, etc.

Maybe its because my body is picky and tries to imply that only yogurt will do, or maybe its all in my head (insert awkward smiling emoji).  But I’m not complaining, because greek yogurt is one of the most perfect foods in my opinion!  Its full of satisfying protein that gives me tons of energy to go about my day!

Did you ever had apple pie for breakfast?  oh no you didn’t?  You can change that now!  Did you have creme brûlée for breakfast before? Oh no, not that either?  I can fix that!

Paleo Apple Pie Breakfast Pizza

Looking for a healthy and filling breakfast? Make this Paleo Apple Pie Breakfast Pizza! Its gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free and vegan-friendly!

So if you can’t tell already, I may have an obsession with making breakfast pizzas #sorrynotsorry. Hey, when you create a recipe that you’re super proud of, why not make more than one variation of it? 

It all started with fresh summer zucchini, and the idea of creating a zucchini bread breakfast pizza.

 Then it transitioned into a fall-inspired pumpkin bread version.  Then it led to an apple variation because apples are just are cool and popular as pumpkin is.

Apple Pie Breakfast Pizza

by 24 Comments

What’s not to love about apple pie? I mean, the soft, cinnamon and sweet apples with a crunchy golden crust, pure bliss. But all of the sugar, fat, and calories are a big no-no in my book, so why not enjoy the taste of apple pie with real cooked apples with cinnamon on top of a breakfast pizza? Life just got so much more exciting! It’s love at first bite, so sweet, soft, and tasty, the way apple pie should be on top of a chewy, golden oatmeal crust. All natural, all good, all tasty, which is everything you could imagine and more!

Protein bars are my go-to snack when I know I won’t have time to eat a substantial meal.  While a lot of protein bars seem healthy, most of them are full of artificial flavors and ingredients.  Good thing I can across Krush Bars!  So excited to share this review with you guys!!

A little bit about them…..

Nutrition:  Similar to any protein bar in terms of protein (20 grams) and fat (9 grams). Added bonus: Only 3 grams of sugar and 17 grams of fiber per bar!

Ingredients: All natural ingredients! No artificial flavors or colors like some bars have!  They are Gluten-free, low carb, have no added sugar and are high fiber! Im impressed!

Texture:   So soft and fluffy!  They basically melt in your mouth!  They are great when you microwave them as well!

Price:  Pretty expensive for protein bars but similar to price of  quest bars.  Well worth it for a great quality and great tasting protein bar!
