NuNaturals Review, Recipe and GIVEAWAY!

Happy Friday Everyone!! Today I bring you a review, recipes and a giveaway! Whooohoo!


The kind people at NuNaturals sent me this little package of goodies! You can imagine how excited I was! Stevia is the only sweetener I use, and NuNaturals is definitely my favorite. I find their Stevia to be the least bitter. I also like that a little goes a long way. I use about half a packet per cup of tea. :) They have baking powder now which is great for those who want to avoid adding a ton of sugar to your baked goods. This will definitely come in handy around the holidays. 
I made the Rawnola that I posted in my last post with their Vanilla Stevia drops. Here is the recipe:
Almond Rawnola
1 and 1/4 cups of almond flour (or almonds crushed in the food processor)
4 tablespoons of raw almond butter
1 drop of Vanilla Stevia
1/4 cup of coconut oil
1/2 cup of coconut flakes
1/2 an apple diced very small

Mix all ingredients in bowl and spread onto dehydrator sheet (or you can use the oven). Dehydrate overnight or for about 12 hours. 
I also made the same recipe into cookies! YUMMY! These need a little longer in the dehydrator, probably about 18 hours. Just check on them every so often. You can probably also put them in the freezer to get them to stick together too.
Now onto the giveaway, sponsored by NuNaturals!

My favorite sweet treat is frozen bananas!

Megan @ The Detoxinista said...

My favorite sweet right now is a warm cup of almond milk, sweetened with vanilla stevia and a splash of almond extract. It reminds me of coffeehouse steamers I used to enjoy in college!

Lauren said...

My favorite sweet treat is Frozen banana strawberry sorbet with raw mint chocolate shavings!!! My second favorite is Chai Tea!

Audrey said...

I rarely meet a sweet (vegan, of course) that I don't like. But for the sake of brevity, I'll say a perfect chocolate chip cookie. :D

Oh! I've heard such good things about those vanilla stevia drops! On the sweets front, if it's vegan, I'll probably like it. I just made the Jelly Doughnut Cupcakes in Veganomicon for a work Halloween party the other day. Those are delicious! The non-vegans (i.e. everyone) loved them!
