What could be better than apple pie?
How about an apple pie tasting snack that is actually good for you? Being sugar-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan!
These bad boys are also high in protein, will balance your blood sugar levels, and make a great pre or post workout snack.
We got this awesome recipe from My Whole Food Life, and after playing around in the kitchen and subbing out the oats for quinoa flakes, we think we have the perfect summer snack recipe.
