Tips & Benefits:
- Natural Peanut Butter: Using natural peanut butter with no added sugar or salt keeps this recipe healthy and low in points.
- Sweetener Swap: If you want to lower the points even further, you can substitute honey with a zero-calorie sweetener like monk fruit, Stevia, or Splenda.
- Portion Control: Peanut butter is calorie-dense, so sticking to small portions is key. Measuring out 1 tablespoon servings can help keep your intake in check.
- Healthy Fats: Peanut butter is high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, making it a satisfying and nutrient-dense snack when enjoyed in moderation.
