Savour the deliciousness of Whey Protein Chocolate Chip Cookies, a tasty treat for anyone on a weight loss surgery journey, combining flavour with healthy goodness.
Here's what you'll need:
Wet ingredients:
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 120ml olive oil
- 110g coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp. peanut butter
Dry ingredients:
- 180g all-purpose flour
- 1 scoop My New Tum's whey protein powder
- 3 tbsp. cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp. ground flaxseed
- ½ tsp. baking soda
- ¼ tsp. baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 85g chocolate chips
Here's how to make it:
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Add the flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, ground flaxseed, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a large bowl, mix to combine and set aside.
Whisk the eggs together in a separate large bowl, then add the olive oil and whisk for 30 seconds. Now add the coconut sugar and peanut butter and whisk for a further 30 seconds.
Add ½ cup of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and fold through until well combined. Now add the remaining flour and chocolate chips and fold the mixture to form a cookie dough.
Divide the cookie dough to make 12 even-sized cookies. Place the cookies onto the baking sheet and place into the hot oven to bake for 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven, and set the cookies onto a wire rack to cool a little before serving.
