Delicious Peanut Butter Protein Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
12
  • 1 cup peanut butter (preferably natural and unsweetened)
  • 1 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate flavored)
  • 1 large egg (or flax egg for a vegan option)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Make sure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, protein powder, and egg. Mix until smooth.

    Use a hand mixer for a fluffier texture.
  3. Form Cookies

    Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and place them on a lined baking sheet.

    Leave enough space between each cookie for spreading.
  4. Flatten Cookies

    Flatten each cookie slightly with a fork or your hands.

    This helps them bake evenly.
  5. Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden.

    Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
