2. Peanut Butter Protein Cookies

We’re substituting in Amino Co’s Vanilla Heal for commercial vanilla whey protein powder and using dark chocolate cacao nibs instead of chocolate chips to transform this yummy treat into a flavorful healthy recipe. 

Peanut Butter Protein Cookies

🥛 SERVINGS: 12   |  🕖 READY IN: 25 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar

 INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. While oven is preheating, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
