However, these spiced Pink Bounty bars are more than just a tasty treat. They're not only packed with unexpected flavors, but they also come with extra health benefits compared to your typical bounty bar!
Why should you make a spiced pink bounty bar?
Instead of an ordinary bounty bar that is highly rich in sugar, a spiced pink bounty bar has both fruits and spice which enhances the healthiness as well as the flavor of the bounty bar.
Adding spice can give an extra kick to the taste, allowing you to sweat and burn calories [1] at the same time that you’re consuming. Adding fruits, specifically raspberry, can provide essential macronutrients such as potassium that help contribute to heart function and lower blood pressure. [2]
Moreover, raspberries offer a natural source of sugar with low carbohydrate content, serving as a healthier alternative to artificial sweeteners and enhancing the overall nutritional profile of the bounty bars!
What types of spice should I use?
Among many options you can choose from, you should always stick with Cinnamon.[3] While providing a spicy and sweet flavor, Cinnamon complements along with coconut and chocolate, making the recipe all the more flavorful!
Aside from its taste qualities, Cinnamon also has aromatic qualities that emanate a strong sense of aroma throughout the house! Not only does the aroma enhance the experience of enjoying the bars, but it also evokes a sense of comfort and coziness that allows you to feel more at home.
Let’s say you’re not a huge fan of Cinnamon spice, so what happens next? There are other various alternatives to the spice you choose, including:
- Ginger
- Cardamom
- Nutmeg
- Allspice
- Cloves
- Turmeric
