When I was doing Weight Watchers a few years ago, these Fiber Crunchies were my favorite 1-point snack. The hardest part of any diet for me is staying away from chocolate! I find myself craving it all the time! So, instead of reaching for a Twix or a Reese’s I decided to make this recipe.
Ingredients in Fiber Crunchies
- Fiber One Cereal
- Kix Cereal
- Peanut Butter
- Hershey Chocolate Bar
High Fiber Snack
Sometimes called a Weight Watcher Cookie, the secret to keeping this healthy snack at only 1 Weight Watcher point each is that they are full of fiber. Each Fiber Crunchie has 3 grams of fiber, which means you’ll fill up faster while satisfying your chocolate craving at the same time. If you’re feeling confused about why high fiber is a good way to go, let me explain. In a nutshell, high fiber foods digest more slowly, which means the food stays in your stomach longer, making you feel full faster and stay full longer. This is helpful when you are trying to cut calories but not give into the need to munch.
More To Love About Fiber Crunchies
In addition, the peanut butter in this recipe gives these healthy cookies some protein which is great for a little mid-day snack when you need a pick-me-up. You can make these ahead of time and then snack on them whenever! Put them in a sandwich bag and stick them in your purse or your gym bag or even just in your car (as long as it’s not too hot outside)! They are also great for kids lunches! Make sure to always store them in an air-tight container. You can store them on the counter, but I like to stick them in the fridge and eat them cold too.
