Ingredients:

170g cooked sweet potato
85g Total 0% Greek Yogurt

1. Blend sweet potato, Greek yogurt, psyllium husks, egg whites, cocoa powder, vegan protein powder, cream of tartar, and baking soda.

2. Bake mixture at 170 Celsius for 20 minutes.

3. Mix vanilla casein powder with coconut milk until it’s creamy for the filling.

4. Use a chopstick to puncture the twinkie as pictured below and use a bag with a hole in it to fill it up with the filling.

Note: You could also use Whey Protein or even Pea Protein for the filling, however casein is fantastic for a job like this because of its smooth creaminess!

  1. This recipe is pure genius!

    Unfortunately, I just gave my ON vanilla casein to a friend b/c I was having trouble using it….now I want it back!

    Great recipe!

  2. Amazing, something originally considered the bumhole of junk-food, made into a high protein cake. Reposting this

    • Oh am sorry 🙁 Did you use ON vanilla casein? because I find it very sweet in itself? always try your batters before you cook them though, just to make sure stuff is as sweet as you like it (i have a taste for the darrrrrk side of chocolate so i think a lot of my stuff is more towards the not very sweet?)
