Healthy Peanut Butter Brownies
One of my favorite brands to buy is Simple Mills, when it comes to making desserts.
This recipe is a low calorie by using apple sauce instead of oil and egg whites instead of whole eggs.
The family & friends loved this dessert!
Warning: May eat the whole batch in one night haha.
Paleo, gluten-free, easy to make and Keto friendly.
