Vegan Nut Butter Protein Ice Cream Bar

Ingredients:

The pecan nut butter mix:

• 2 tablespoons pecan nut butter, raw organic
• 2 tablespoons fresh organic pecans crushed into chunks
• 1 scoop Warrior Blend vanilla protein powder
• 1/2 cup apple cinnamon butter sauce (homemade with organic cinnamon & all spice)
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (vanilla flavor)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut greek yogurt (vanilla)
• 1 teaspoon wheatgrass powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla beans

The coconut cream mix:

• 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk (vanilla)
• 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut greek yogurt (vanilla)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla beans

The crunchy cookie crust:

• 2–3 pieces of gluten-free crunchy cookies (I used maple cookies)

Directions:

Blend together all the ingredients in the pecan nut butter mix, from the pecan nut butter to the first vanilla beans, until mostly smooth then set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix the coconut milk with coconut greek yogurt and vanilla beans until smooth.

Grab a popsicle mold and alternatively pour coconut cream mix and pecan nut butter mix in layers into the mold.

Crush the cookies and top each popsicle with a layer of crunchy cookie crumbles and place the mold in the freezer. Freeze overnight and enjoy it in the morning or as a post-workout cool-off snack! It’s always perfect for after those hot workout sessions!
