DID YOU KNOW? Artificial sweeteners may be holding you back from losing excess weight – and could be causing you to gain weight!
Artificial sweeteners affect your food cravings and your ability to manage your body’s signals for hunger and fullness. These sweeteners are very addictive unlike natural sweeteners that leave you feeling more satisfied.
So, if you tend to use artificial sweeteners or refined sugar products like Splenda, agave, aspartame or sugar, I highly recommend replacing these with unrefined natural sweeteners like maple syrup and raw honey.
Unrefined natural sweeteners contain higher levels of beneficial nutrients, antioxidants and enzymes.
Try my chewy Flourless Pumpkin Spice Cookies with maple syrup. When used in moderation, maple syrup can help to better manage blood sugar, all while creating great tasting recipes.

Preheat oven to 350F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until a thick batter is formed. If adding in chocolate chips, do so after mixing other ingredients.
Give the batter a taste-test and adjust the flavours to your preference (optional).
Scoop batter with a tablespoon and place on baking sheet. Press down the mound with a wet fork to flatten and place one pecan on top.
Bake at 350F for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden.
Allow to cool completely on tray before using a spatula to remove. If you move the cookies too soon them may fall apart (I know this from personal experience).
Serve immediately or store in fridge or freezer for a firmer cookie.
Pumpkin Spice Latte is the perfect way to start a fall day! This latte is bursting with the warming spices of autumn–and is rich, creamy & delicious. It’s a healthy dairy free, paleo & plant-based hot drink you’ve got to try!
I’m officially obsessed with my morning Pumpkin Spice Latte. It’s to the point where I wonder how I survived all the other seasons without it!
I like to make my lattes rich and creamy by using canned coconut milk which has a higher fat content.
You can also add collagen powder if you’d like. It’s a simple way to boost this warm and comforting beverage with nutrients that support your bones, joints, skin, nails and gut! It also makes this latte super satisfying, so it tames a hungry belly in a healthy way.
