These Easy Healthy High-Protein Vegan Cookies are a healthy, nutritious way to satisfy that sweet tooth. Naturally gluten-free and vegan, they’re also full of healthy fats and fiber too!
They pack a good amount of protein, so they really are a perfect cookie.
We’ve used peanut butter powder instead of protein powder since we don’t like the taste of most protein powders, and the peanut butter powder has got a neutral flavor.
We have, however, left an option for you to use a protein powder instead, although that may alter the taste of these vegan cookies.
When it comes to cookies, we are definitely on the flat and chewy side of things. Some people like cakey cookies, other people like them crispy.
The base is almond butter, which gives these cookies a really amazing nutty flavor (obvs) and helps with that nice gooey texture.
They are crispy and soft in the middle!
How To Make Vegan Protein Cookies:
You will need:
1.Nut Butter – we used almond
2. Date Syrup
3.Peanut Butter Powder – or protein powder
4.Vegan Chocolate Chips
5.Chia Seeds
6.Flaxseeds
6.Desiccated Coconut
7.Baking Soda
You need to make a ‘vegan egg’ by mixing 1 tbsp of flaxseeds with 3 tbsp of water and let it ‘gel’.
After that, basically, all the ingredients are mixed together. It should form a soft dough.
Using 1 heaped tbsp from the tough, roll into a ball and flatten it with your hands gently on the baking sheet to form a cookie shape. Repeat with all the cookie dough.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cookies are lightly golden brown. Cool on the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
