Christmas is right around the corner and in full swing! Can you smell the cookies, brownies and gingerbread spices?

I already shared a few Christmas goodies Almond Flour Gingerbread Muffins, Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars, and Gingerbread Coffee Creamer. I’m also rounding up more favorites from the blog so keep your eyes peeled for healthy baking inspiration!

Over the weekend the guy and I had a black tie event. As luck would have it, I took a fall Saturday morning on my walk. Tripped like an old lady over a rock. Cut my hands and my knee was swollen. Lucky, the guy was at home waiting to put me back together when I got there and we were still able to go out.

It was fun playing dress up and doing the fancy shmancy going out thing. We didn’t know anyone except his friend who was hosting the event. Free food, free drinks. We were happy. Because of the gluten thing, I couldn’t eat much. Ugh, always a challenge when going out which is why I stick to protein and veggies to avoid it the best I can.

I kept eyeing the muffin desserts wishing they were gluten free, but alas they weren’t. Thankfully, I had a stash of goodies waiting for me when I got home.

These Raw Peppermint Brownies were just the thing! A spin on my famous no bake carrot cake and no bake pumpkin pie. I just couldn’t help myself creating a holiday raw dessert. They’re my favorite way to indulge.

Tons of healthy fat, protein and a solid dose of chocolate. No added sugar. Everything is naturally sweetened and the peppermint gives it that minty fresh flavor. The best part? You only need a small piece to feel satisfied!

Make them for a holiday gathering or keep them in the freezer and eat them all yourself. I did!

    I can’t believe you fell!!! That’s some shit I would do. LOL! Really glad you weren’t badly hurt though.

    These sound amazing. I’m always trying to make GF treat for Vegas… who refuses to consistently eat GF even though she needs to.

      I know. Totally went down like an old lady. My boyfriend said “that’s what you get for turning 40.”

    I love the chocolate layer Megan. I love the brownie layer!

    I’m imagining biting through that chocolate layer enjoying that lovely soft crunch and sweet taste from the crushed candy canes then delving into that soft and glorious brownie layer. Yum yum! 😀
