Cinnamon Peanut Butter Egg White Chips – Low Carb, Gluten Free

Egg white chips, I’ve heard rumor of them . . . sometimes they are called cloud chips and popular with the keto and low carb diet fans.

Whether you call it a chip or cracker, I call this low-carb snack super yummy!  Made from egg whites, peanut butter powder, cinnamon and stevia  this keto-friendly recipes has almost no carbs or fat and a good source of protein. So addictive, you'll love them for entertaining or as a grab-and-go snack after a workout. 50 calories, 1g net carb and 8g protein per 12-chip serving.

I googled “how to make egg white chips” and found an assortment of savory takes on this low carb snack. The method on how to make egg white chips seemed time consuming, requiring them to be made in mini muffin tins and pulled out one by one (ugh, I’m thinking SO MUCH STICKING).

Whether you call it a chip or cracker, I call this low-carb snack super yummy!  Made from egg whites, peanut butter powder, cinnamon and stevia  this keto-friendly recipes has almost no carbs or fat and a good source of protein. So addictive, you'll love them for entertaining or as a grab-and-go snack after a workout. 50 calories, 1g net carb and 8g protein per 12-chip serving.

I also couldn’t find any type of egg white cloud crackers that were sweet . . . in a low carb sweet way. Everything was just salty, herby, cheesy — I have a sweet tooth and want a sweet egg white chip.

My solution to both the time consuming making process AND the lack of sweet egg white chips was to just come up with my own recipe and own way of making these keto snacks.

Just shake up egg white, PB powder, cinnamon and stevia in a jar, pour out on baking sheet!

A little protein powder, cinnamon and stevia blended into the egg whites was easy enough, especially just all dumped in a mason jar and given a vigorous shake to combine. After baked crispy this tasty flavor combo reminded me of some popular cereals — like Captain Crunch mixed with Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

Cut the egg white chips into squares BEFORE they are done baking.

Common factor here is the CRUNCH. If you can pour the egg white mixture thinly enough in a big sheet pan, and par bake, cut into squares, flip and continue baking you can get the crunchiest little bites of YUM! This process of cutting them in the pan eliminated the tedious process of cooking all these cinnamon egg white chips in muffin pans.

A serving of these cinnamon peanut butter egg white chips have just 50 calories for TWELVE chips. Also, just 1g net carb and and welcomed little protein boost of 8g. If you don’t eat them all in one sitting, the leftovers can be stored in the fridge (air-tight container) and then re-crisped in the microwave for about 30 seconds, then let cool down some.

In fact, I love to eat one of these healthy cheesecakes an hour or so before bed – the protein from the cottage cheese and collagen keeps me from getting hungry at night and support workout recovery and gains. In fact, studies show that most muscle “gains” happen during your deep, deep sleep. Both collagen and diary-products (like cottage cheese) are shown to support better sleep.

In addition to being a great snack or light meal for an active lifestyle, you’ll also love how easy these protein cheesecakes are to make – there is no official baking required, just a quick zap in the microwave to set the crust before topping with the cottage cheese filling.

How to Flex Your Side Hustle with Shake!

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Shake by IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine.

Hey, y’all! Thanks for stopping by today to check out my thoughts on Shake, a creative marketplace where creators like myself (and I bet you, too!) can sell digital creative services conveniently and securely.

As a competitive athlete, mom of three boys and self-employed boss babe of 15 years who works in the writing, fitness and clean-eating niche, I live by this motto –   “The dream is free, but the hustle is sold separately.” I do truly believe I can accomplish whatever goals my can mind conjures up. That is, if I’m willing to put in the hard work – the hours of sweating for my sport, the writing and editing, the recipe testing and tweaking (maybe even twerking, lol), and networking to find people who want to hire me!

This is what a Shake looks like to marketers.

 With the new platform Shake, I’m better able to potentially increase my income and work from home by connecting with brands for sponsored gigs (like blogs posts, Instagram posts and reels, virtual appearances, and more). You can see below how I’m starting a new Shake for Virtual Cooking Demos.  

It’s so easy to get Shakin’ with this intuitive, self-contained platform.

This creative marketplace is not just for bloggers or Instagram, Youtube and Tic-tok influencers, Shake can also help photographers, videographers, writers, musicians and other creative types making digital products transact with business who are looking for talent! At my recommendation, my 21-year-old son is going to begin marketing his digital gaming art here – I’m excited for him!

Showing my talented son how he can create a side hustle on Shake!

Using Shake is free for the Creator to initiate, there are no monthly fees are anything. However, there is a 15% marketplace fee on the final deal amount – which is actually much more equitable than some similar competitors out there “helping” creators. The good news is that you don’t pay anything upfront. In my opinions, it’s a total win-win for Creators . . . and those marketplace fees are a LEGIT business expenses, so keep your digital invoices.

I’m so excited to share this Shake review with you, I hope you are inspired. Start dreaming and hustling and Click here to join Shake.
