Ingredients
1 cup vanilla protein powder 100g
1/2 cup peanut butter 125g, or any nut or seed butter
1/4 cup maple syrup 60ml, or honey/sugar free maple syrup
1-4 tablespoons water
1/4 cup chocolate chips 40g
Method
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter and maple syrup until combined. Slowly add in the protein powder until a thick and crumbly texture remains.- Using a tablespoon, add enough water until a thick consistency remains. The dough should look thick, soft, and scoopable, like classic cookie dough. Fold through the chocolate chips or mix-ins of choice. When properly mixed, the dough should hold together easily when pressed with a spoon.
- Enjoy immediately or chill for 30 minutes for a more firm edible cookie dough.
- Water: Start with one tablespoon of water and only add more as needed.Serving size: 1/3 of a cup.Protein powder: 1 cup protein powder works out to be 3-4 scoops, depending on the brand. For accuracy, weigh out 100 grams of protein powder. Leftovers: Keep covered in the fridge for up to one week or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
