Ingredients

Orange layer:

Yellow layer:

White layer:

Instructions

  • Mix each color batter in a separate bowl. When you make the yellow batter, mix the turmeric in the applesauce before adding whey and coconut flour.
  • Shape each dough into a rectangle, approximately 3"x5". (The orange dough will be twice as thick as the others.)
  • Layer the colors with the orange in the middle.
  • Slice into strips about ¼" wide.
  • To make the candy corn, make alternating diagonal cuts into each strip (see photo above).
  • Smooth the shape with your fingers (if desired).
  • Enjoy!

Notes

A note about substitutions: because each type of protein powder has a distinct flavor and texture, I would not try substituting different types of protein powders in this recipe. (See my Recipe Basics video for examples of what goes wrong when you use the wrong protein powder.)
