Ingredients

  • ¾ cup almond flour or oat flour (less protein)
  • 4 scoops vanilla protein powder your favorite brand
  • 1 cup cashew butter drippy & creamy, almond butter works too
  • ⅓-1/2 c chocolate chips mini is preferred, vegan or sugar free as needed
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Use a hand mixer to mix together the ¾ cup almond flour, 4 scoops vanilla protein powder, 1 cup cashew butter, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, and ¼ teaspoon salt until a cookie dough consistency forms.
    If it's too dry, add a little more cashew butter or maple syrup (if you want it sweeter) and if it's too wet, add a little more almond flour.
  • Once the texture is right, mix in the ⅓-1/2 c chocolate chips. Measure with your heart! Then enjoy!

Notes

A serving size is about a ¼ of a cup.
helpful tips
  1. Add milk as needed: Depending on how drippy your cashew butter is, you will need more milk. So, add 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough reaches the cookie dough stage.
  2. If you want it sweeter: You can add a little maple syrup or honey if you want it sweeter.
  3. Use a hand mixer: This seriously makes it SO much easier to mix since cashew butter is so sticky.
  4. Double the recipe: This recipe is super easy to scale up or down. So you can make a large batch and freeze it or just make a single serving!
Make it nut free: Use oat flour in place of almond flour and sunflower butter instead of cashew butter.
Protein cookie dough without protein powder: To do this, swap the protein powder for additional almond flour and add a little more cashew butter as needed.
To make this a single serve cookie dough use the following quantities:
  • 3 tablespoon almond flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • ¼ c creamy cashew butter
  • 2 tablespoon mini chocolate chips
  • ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
