Back again with another Empowrd's gluten free donut mix spin. Naturally, now that it's only 90 degrees out every day and not 95, the whisper of fall has thrown me into full-on pumpkinpalooza. You know, pumpkin spice and everything nice season. These pumpkin donuts are the right way to start every day a few degrees… Continue reading Glazed Pumpkin Protein Donuts

Pumpkin season starts NOW! What? Orange you glad fall is coming? I, for one, am shocked I made it a whole week into August before busting out the canned pumpkin. This loaf is super simple to make, absolutely hits all the fall flavor notes, and best of all, it won't make you plump-kin because it's… Continue reading Pumpkin Protein Loaf With Cinnamon Glaze

Have a loafly breakfast or dessert with this easy, quick cinnamon roll protein loaf. Sorry, terrible puns are how I roll. I know bad jokes can get stale quite quickly, but thankfully this bread recipe doesn't! I have been craving cinnamon rolls like crazy the past month, but I am too lazy to make a… Continue reading Cinnamon Roll Protein Loaf

It's the most wonderful week of the year! I'm obsessed with Shark Week, and not just because it came to life the same year I did back in 1987 (please don't do the math). I can empathize with sharks because I, too, suffer from resting bitch face and feel the need to eat my body… Continue reading Shark Week = Shark Eats

Give this recipe a shot (or two), and I promise it'll change your outlook on summer heat, and this is coming from someone who hates both summer and heat. But this pie is so unbelievably refreshing that it makes all that pesky heat just melt away, like any good margarita should. It's sweet, sour, cool,… Continue reading No-Bake Margarita Pie

If I could eat cheesecake for every meal, I would. But typically, cheesecakes are absolutely the most time-consuming dessert to make, so I'd pretty much never leave my kitchen. Enter these mini pistachio cheesecakes that are an absolute sinch to throw together. I've know cupcakes that were more demanding than these little pillowy bites of… Continue reading Mini Pistachio Protein Cheesecakes

Perhaps the thing I was saddest to give up when I had to go gluten free was a really good donut. Most donut joints only offer plain glazed gluten free donuts (still better than NO donut), but my heart belongs to a good cake donut with a chocolate glaze and sprinkles. I was SO happy… Continue reading Protein Donuts with Peanut Butter Chocolate Glaze

This no-bake butterscotch pie is low in calories but high in flavor! Made with protein shakes and sugar-free Jell-o, it's also incredibly macro-friendly. You know, so have a slice or three to beat the heat. You can throw this together in under five minutes, but it will need a few hours to set. Perfect to… Continue reading No-Bake Butterscotch Pie

Jump to recipe My husband is not a dessert person, which is ironic, considering my main hobby includes churning out dessert at an alarming rate. However, bless him, he still tries every dessert I make because he knows how much it means to me. I usually do a pretty epic bake for his birthday cake… Continue reading A Batch Made in Heaven

I only have pies for you... Keep your eyes on the pie...because this Butterfinger pie will not last more than 5 minutes in your fridge if left unattended. This is honestly one of my most frequently made recipes because it is not only super easy, but it is also super delicious. Creamy, peanut buttery, and… Continue reading Nobody Better Lay a Finger on My Butterfinger (Pie)
