Air Fried Almond Milk Nog Bread Balls
FitMenCook
My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.
If you caught the holiday baking bug and want to put a twist on your homemade dough recipe, use Almond Breeze almondmilk nog! Not only is it delicious and creamy with only 70 calories, but also it provides the perfect amount of traditional egg nog flavor sweetness with no dairy!
Air Fried Almond Milk Nog Bread Balls
Ingredients for 40 Nog balls (macros for 1 ball)
(or just 1 large loaf 😅)
- Wet
- 2/3 cup + 2 tablespoons Almond Breeze almondmilk nog
- 2 tablespoons agave
- 1 tablespoon almond or vanilla extract
- Dry
- 2 cups all purpose flour (or wheat flour)
- 3/4oz (~2 teaspoons) baking yeast
- pinch of salt
- Glaze
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons Almond Breeze almondmilk nog
- spray avocado oil
- Mix together the wet ingredients in a cup or bowl.
- Mix together the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the flour and stir well with a spatula until dough forms. If needed, add tablespoons of flour if the mixture is too wet and sticky, and add tablespoons of Almond Breeze almondmilk nog if it is too dry. Form the dough into a ball in the bowl and then cover with a towel to let it rise for 2 hours (make sure you store it in a dry place).
- After 2 hours, set the air fryer to 400F/204C (or oven to 420F/216C).
- Lightly flour a surface and empty the dough onto the surface. Roll it out (knead) with a rolling pin (or even a glass) once or twice, then form a ball. If you’re making the balls, cut the dough into pieces the size of golf balls. Place them on your air fryer tray (or baking sheet). Spray them with a little avocado oil (or brush with butter), then air fry for 8 – 10 minutes. Repeat until all the dough is used.
- In another bowl, mix together the ingredients for the glaze with a spatula. When the balls are fresh out of the air fryer, dip them into the glaze then set them aside to dry. You can even store them in the fridge until it is time to enjoy them!
- Enjoy with warm almond milk nog (maybe with a little adult beverage)!
