While brainstorming in the kitchen this morning, I concocted
"carob protein frosting" that tastes like caramel sauce!
Carob Protein Frosting
created by Snacking Squirrel
1 Tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
1 Tbsp chocolate or vanilla protein powder
1 Tbsp soy or almond milk
1 Tbsp roasted carob powder
1-2 Dashes stevia liquid or powder
Directions:
A. Gently combine the nut butter and protein powder together
B. Slowly stir in the nut milk, then blend in the carob powder and stevia
C. Add more milk if too thick, or more protein/carob powder if too thin

The frosting is so addictive and there's definitely a hint of caramel in the flavor
Another reason to replace Nutella with something healthier :)

I have been mixing carob powder with almond butter in huge batches the last couple weeks...isn't it amazing??? So good! I have it almost every day on toast with bananas. It also tastes GREAT on sweet taters ;)
I have yet to get carob powder, but when I do I want to make this! Looks delicious.
I love carob. This sounds and looks delicious!
I've never tried carob. Does it taste like cocoa? Beautiful idea, however! :)
Carob is delicious. I'm drooling at the sight of this :P

I've never tried carob... Need to buy it!
I don't mind eating the not so healthy version but I just cannot find the real thing anywhere so... maybe I will consider making my own soon :)

I have never used carob powder before, but I have carob chips at home ... I still need to try them!
Ooooh! looks delicious-- don't usually bookmark recipe but this one definitely is getting it's own tab. It looks so creamy, and perfect slathered on some bread!
