Protein Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies

Servings: 29 cookies of 28 g of dough each


INGREDIENTS

  • 30 g (2 tbsp) unsalted butter or refined coconut oil – room temperature
  • 140 g (1 cup) smooth almond butter (or pumpkin seed butter for nut-free)
  • 70 g (1/3 cup) granular gold sweetener (erythritol, allulose, or a mix)
  • 3 large eggs or flax eggs
  • 5 g (1 tsp) vanilla extract
  • 4 g (1 tsp) baking powder
  • 3 g (½ tsp) salt
  • 140 g (1 cup) pistachios - chopped
  • 70 g (½ cup) shelled raw pumpkin seeds – whole dry roasted
  • 40 g (1/2 cup) unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 50 g (1/2 cup) unflavored or vanilla whey protein powder or plant protein
  • 36 g (1/4 cup) collagen protein powder or plant protein
  • 80 g (1/2 cup) sugar-free dried cranberries – lightly packed (optional)
  • 60 g (1/3 cup) sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  • 1.   Preheat the oven to 300 F or 150 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease the surface.

  • 2.   Into a large bowl, add the butter, almond butter, and sweetener. Beat in the sweetener until well combined. Add the vanilla, baking powder, and finely ground salt. Beat until smooth – about 2 minutes

  • 3.   Next add the whey protein isolate, and collagen powder, beating until well combined

  • 4.   Add the pumpkin seed, the crushed pistachios, the coconut flakes, unsweetened cranberries and the mini chocolate chips, folding by hand until well distributed through the batter

  • 5.   Use a one tablespoon, or 28 g, or about 1 oz, scoop to form dough balls. Place onto the parchment lined baking sheet leaving 2 inches (5 cm) space between the dough balls. Using wet fingertips, press each down to a 1-inch or 2.5 cm thick disk

  • 6.   Bake 10 minutes for a soft moist cookie, and up to 12 minutes for a crispier exterior. Remove from oven and transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Store extra cookies in an airtight container, or freeze either the baked cookies or dough balls until needed. Enjoy!
