Are you a morning exerciser or an evening workout kind of person? During college and grad school, I loved to wake up early and go for a run before I started the rest of my day. However, now that my work schedule has me up at 5 in order to be ready and out the door by 6:30, fitting in a morning workout just isn’t feasible.
So, I have learned to embrace evening workout classes at a few of my favorite gyms around the city. I like to try new things so each week looks completely different – rotating between spin, yoga, barre, TRX and more.
In order to have enough energy to sustain me through my workout, I have adopted the habit of incorporating a mid to late afternoon snack into my diet.
A few of my go-to workout snacks include trail mix, granola bars, popcorn, or a homemade muffin like one of these vegan berry muffins. (Be sure to check out my healthy workout snacks post for even more dietitian-approved options.) This recipe was inspired by my partnership with Silk soy milk, a protein-packed non-dairy milk that works well in recipes for baked goods like these muffins.
If you are looking to make these for a pre-workout snack, simply leave off the glaze. If you want a small treat to keep on hand to curb a sweet tooth with a little less guilt, then drizzle on the pretty pink strawberry flavored glaze. It’s delightful!
