Buckeye cookies for a gluten-free treat

Buckeye cookies are traditionally a combination of peanut butter and milk chocolate. While we love this sweet and salty combination, we wanted an alternate to peanut butter, dairy, and traditional sugars during our cleanse. For our version, we’ve chosen cleanse-approved chocolate and replaced peanut butter with almond butter. The result is just delicious!

These vegan cheesecake bars are great for sharing

For those sensitive to dairy, a creamy and decadent cheesecake may normally be off-limits. That’s why we’ve created this rich, raw vegan version with a healthy dose of chocolate to amp up the flavor. Using cashews and cacao you will get the same satisfaction while also loading up on micronutrients and healthy fats. The best part is that these vegan cheesecake bars are no-bake, so you won’t even have to turn on your oven!

Sweet potato cake for a sweet new tradition

Hearty root vegetables are a staple for fall and winter. We love them roasted or mashed with savory seasonings, but sweet potatoes are also the perfect nutrient-dense vegetable to add to any sweet dessert. They pair so well with fall spices like cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. This sweet potato cake is delicious enough to enjoy as dessert or the perfect pairing with tea at breakfast.

Move over banana bread, pear bread is here

Banana bread is a beloved baked good, thanks to its sweet flavor and moist texture. We’ve made our own version here at Clean Program. Introducing your new fave: pear bread. We remove bananas during our 21-day Cleanse since they can have a dramatic impact on blood sugar levels. Pears are an excellent replacement and result in an equally tasty bread that serves as the perfect breakfast or dessert.
