This is how I eat my egg whites pretty much every single night (I eat all six). Typically I eat my frozen egg whites, brush my teeth, and head to bed. I put 6 egg whites, a dash of unsweetened almond milk, about 2-3 teaspoons cinnamon, 1 tiny scoop of Kal Stevia (you can also use 2 Truvia packets but that has 3g carbs per packet) and 1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder You just want to make sure you use the egg whites out of a carton so that they are pasteurized and safer to eat. Blend it for about 30 seconds then pour the mixture in 6 muffin tins and stick it in the freezer. Freeze for 2-3 hours or so. I usually prep these as I am cleaning up dinner. This is so good and feels like you are eating a dessert! It has about the consistency of a popsicle or fruit bar when done. The cinnamon and chocolate combo sort of has a “mexican mocha” taste to it.
**You can also sub the cinnamon for 1 Tbsp natural peanut butter if you haven’t had your healthy fat for the day (my preferred way to eat it)**
-If you prefer you can use 1/2 scoop chocolate whey protein instead of the stevia and unsweetened cocoa powder.
-FYI, these will be hard to pop out of the muffin tin when you first take them out of the freezer. Let them sit for about 4-5 minutes and they will be a lot easier to pop out. You can also run the bottom of the muffin tin underneath warm water for about 10-15 seconds.
Here is a picture of the liquid egg whites I use for my frozen egg white dessert each night. I typically just buy whichever brand is the cheapest. But, you really want to make sure you get the 100% egg whites. The “egg substitute” is usually 99% egg whites but has a bunch of other stuff added to it with names I can’t pronounce. There will be a spot on the carton that shows you the conversion ratio of liquid egg whites to regular egg whites. I paid $3.99 for the carton and it is the equivalent of about 30 egg whites (13 cents per egg).
Natalie, I have just started using egg whites, I tried this frozen egg white dessert and it was awesome. However, I have noticed a side effect from these liquid egg whites. Do you experience gas from liquid egg whites? I looked it up on threads for bodybuilding.com and it seems fairly common, do you/have you experience this and do you know of a remedy besides not eating the liquid egg whites? sorry for the bold and unappealing question…but gotta ask.
Your comment made me smile :) you know, I haven’t had much of a problem with it, but you might want to try using a probiotic – I use Udo’s Adult Probiotic and take one capsule a day – a digestive enzyme might be helpful too. Glad you like this recipe! It’s one I make almost every day.
thanks–will look into it.
these are absolutely amazing! I used peanut butter instead of cinnamon and it tasted like i was eating chocolate peanut butter ice cream!!!!
Abby so glad you like them!! They are one of my favorite things to eat at night – especially when I am having sugar cravings! :)
I’m finally going to try these with PB. What measurement do you use for the egg whites? Is it 1 cup measured? Thanks
I hope you liked them Marcy! Each brand of liquid egg whites is slightly different – there should be a conversion chart on the side of the cart. I usually do 3/4 cup for 6 egg whites.
I love love love this recipe. Thank you so so so much for sharing!!
You are so welcome!! Thanks for the feedback Sharon!!
Natalie,
I was experiencing some MAJOR sweet cravings tonight that started around 9pm. I didn’t have these made up and frozen but I knew I needed something RIGHT AWAY before I ate/drank something I would regret (i.e. grab the peanut butter jar, dip into my kiddos ice cream, etc). Well, I remembered this recipe and I decided to blend it all up with some ice cubes and just drink it!! It did the trick! Thank you sooo much!!
Katrina :-)
Yum!!! That sounds delish!!! Glad it worked in a pinch like a shake too! Thanks for the feedback Katrina :)
Do you have 1 and leave the remainder in freezer?
Hey Caroline! Nope! 1 serving is 6 of the frozen cups!! It’s great and a lot!!
Looking forward to trying this… Just had a brain wave.. here in Australia we have little plastic iceblock moulds that you can use to make homemade iceblocks for kids… I am thinking I might try this chocolate goodness and see how it sets (might take a bit longer) in one of them.. Love the tip for getting eggwhites in late in the evening.. bravo lovely lady Thank You xx
I’m wondering if those are mini cupcake tins? I have the normal size and it only made 4? I’m sure it doesn’t matter – but was just curious in case I missed something?
I love this site. I just spent the past couple weeks watching all sorts of food documentaries and have decided to add in more veggies to my diet and start trying to replace the bad stuff that I eat. I’m on my 1st week and actually feeling amazing!!! I’m trying to get pregnant with #3 and look forward to trying a bunch of your recipes! I was doing Jamie Eason Live-fit trainer at home and was having awesome results, until I stopped :/
Hi natalie.
I have to try this recipe – looks awesome!
Just have 1 question – I am in South Africa and dont think we get Stevia here. What is it?
Thanks Claire! Stevia is a natural sweetener that comes from a leaf. Truvia is a popular brand here in the US. Check with your local health food store – they may carry it! You can also get it off amazon.com but shipping might get pricey.
