Ingredients
Scale
- 2 eggs
- ⅔ cup unsalted peanut butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar white or coconut or brown etc.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup vanilla protein powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt omit if PB was salted
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, blend the eggs, peanut butter, sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes smooth.
- Gently stir in the protein powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined; the batter will thicken noticeably.
- Add the chocolate chips and fold them into the batter carefully.
- Use a 2 tablespoon scoop to portion the dough into balls, gently pressing each to flatten as they won’t spread much during baking.
- Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, adjusting between 8 to 12 minutes depending on your preference.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 20 minutes before enjoying.
Notes
- I used vanilla pea protein, but any type, such as whey, should work!
