Sweet Apple Burgers
Iva
Who said the burgers could not be sweet. Well, I think everything is possible in the culinary. Here's a fast and easy effortless snack idea. It is spectacular, isn't it. It's high in protein, delicious and very healthy. It's also vegan.
Ingredients
-
3 apples
-
3 cups walnuts
-
10 medjool dates
-
1 tbsp protein powder
-
3 tbsp protein chocolate spread
-
1 cup granola
-
3 cinnamon sticks
1
Soak the dates for about 15 minutes in hot water. Peel the skin and remove the pit. Blend or mash with a fork to obtain a puree.
2
Blend the walnuts and 3 cups of water. Strain the walnuts with a nut milk bag or cheesecloth. Squeeze well until you get all the liquid. You get a BONUS - walnut milk.
Tip:
- For healthier version, soak the walnuts overnight. It's good for digestion and gut health.
3
Combine the walnut meal, left in the cheesecloth, with protein powder and the dates puree. Mix well and shape by hand three burgers.
4
Cut the apples into slices. Make layers by placing the sweet burgers in the middle, then a slice of apple, protein chocolate spread and make a layer with granola and again an apple. Finish with cinnamon sticks.
