Chocolate Protein Cookies

almond butter (or peanut butter)

almond flour

Chocolate Coconut Almond Protein (or any chocolate protein powder)

coconut sugar

banana

cocoa powder (natural, not dutch-processed)

tbsp melted coconut oil

tsp vanilla extract

tsp baking powder

tsp salt

chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a bowl, combine almond butter, almond flour, protein powder, coconut sugar, mashed banana, cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Mix together until evenly combined. Then, stir in the chocolate chips.

Scoop the cookie dough into balls. Using clean hands, flatten and form into round cookies. Press extra chocolate chips on top (optional).

Bake cookies for 18-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top (optional). Enjoy!

Flavors are 10/10, but mine turned out pretty dry. I had to sun an egg for mashed banana because I didn’t have any bananas. Maybe more coconut oil next time?

Vegan protein cookies are easy to make and pack almost 9 grams of protein per 125 calorie cookie. They&#39;re great any time of day and much more affordable than store-bought protein cookies and bars. They&#39;re soft-yet-chewy, very satisfying, and taste like a cake brownie in cookie form!

Vegan Protein Cookies

vanilla extract

pea protein powder, plain/unsweetened

cocoa powder

baking powder

oats

mini vegan chocolate chips (see Notes) (Check

Preheat

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Mash

Place bananas in a mixing bowl, and mash with a fork. Whisk in the vanilla, coconut sugar, and peanut butter.

In a medium-size bowl whisk together the pea protein, cocoa, baking powder, and oats. If using unsalted peanut butter be sure to also add about ¼ tsp fine sea salt.

Combine

Pour dry ingredients into wet, and stir to combine. The dough will be very thick. Fold in the chocolate chips, if using.

Form

Scoop up a scant 3 tablespoons of dough per cookie. Using a 1.5 Tbsp cookie scoop works well. Just put two scoops of dough in your palm, squeeze them together, and roll into a smooth ball. Use your palms to gently flatten each cookie into a thick patty shape. Place on the baking sheet. Use a fork to create a criss-cross pattern on top of the cookies, further flattening them into a cookie shape.

Bake

Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the bottoms are golden. Let cool on the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Let cool completely before storing.

This recipe has been amazing for my child that is doing an elimination diet. I make them with sun butter because we are avoiding nuts right now. Having protein cookies on hand made the first couple of weeks so much easier as we worked out just how much protein my kid needs to not get hangry. I make these at least once a week and my child wants me to keep making them even when the elimination diet is over. Thanks for the awesome recipe!

My batter ended up really wet, making it difficult to shape the cookies as described in the recipe. I wonder if it would help to include 1-3 hour dough refrigeration step.

Wow - absolutely delicious flavour and texture. I substituted sugar for Stevia, and used Stevia chocolate. They are the perfect treat, and I'm a fussy baker.

Have been wanting to try these cookies for a while, and decided today was the day.  Super quick to put together and bake.  Tasty, chocolatey, and full of protein.  Used same ingredients and amounts as in the recipe. Turned out exactly like the picture.  Great addition to any meal that needs a protein boost. Will definitely make them again.

Let me start by saying I’m not vegan.
I did, however buy some chocolate flavour vegan protein powder and discovered it was very different in many ways from my regular stuff and I didn't like the taste of the protein powder at all. THESE COOKIES ARE AMAZING! A great way to utilize that pea protein powder! I used 1 cup of powder and added a tablespoon of cocoa powder. I also added an egg. Oh, and I used regular light peanut butter too. A few adjustments but I’m obsessed with these cookies!!

Any suggestions on how to not eat all of the dough before it makes it to the oven?

Just made these, so good! My 10 year old nephew is enjoying too. I used Vega chocolate protein and greens powder, 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder  it worked well. Thanks for the recipe!

Hi, 
My cookie batter turns out very runny. So they bake really flat and are kinda sticky. Despite this they taste great. But I can’t figure out why the dough isn’t dryer. There’s no way I can mold it with my hands. The only difference in ingredients is that I used whey protein powder. Suggestions? Thanks so much!

These Chocolate Protein Cookies are soft, chewy, and delicious. These gluten-free cookies make a great breakfast treat, filling workout snack, or healthy dessert.

chocolate protein powder

tsp baking soda

sea salt

almond butter

eggs

vanilla

Preheat your oven to 350 and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Whisk together protein powder, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt in a mixing bowl.

Add in the remaining ingredients and mix it all well.

Roll heaping tablespoon sized pieces of dough, ten balls per sheet. Using a clean fork, make a criss cross pattern on the top (if the dough sticks to your fork, rinse and dry it every few balls).

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are slightly crisped.

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack an cool for another 10 minutes.
