Allergy Friendly Baked Churro Balls

Gluten Free, Dairy Free & Egg Free Baked Churro Balls with Soulbee Honey

I always prefer using honey over sugar whenever a recipe calls for a sweetner. So when I saw SoulBee Honey product range, I was super excited.

The honey powders come in different flavors. Their honey products are also available in flake form too. They were kind enough to send me a free sample of their honey powder.

SoulBee Honey Powder has many benefits:

  • Can be used as a sugar substitute, as a natural and healthier alternative.
  • Substitution can be done without worrying about measurements as it is dry and can be used on 1:1 ratio.
  • Can be turned into liquid honey, if desired.
  • Since it's honey, there are numerous health benefits too
  • Available in US and more recently in Canada(through Amazon).

When I first tasted the powder, there was only a subtle difference in taste than the sugar. The kids did not notice any difference at all.

Thinking how to use this powder in my cooking, since it's a honey powder, its naturally going to be sweet, so I decided to make a dessert. I have not made Churros in a while and they seemed a good recipe to use the honey powder in.

These gluten free, dairy free and egg free baked Churro balls are coated with a mixture of honey powder from SoulBee Honey, brown sugar and cinnamon. However, I gave a different shape to the Churros than their usual cylindrical style and baked them to make them more healthier.
