Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond flour (or oat flour for a slightly different texture)

• 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based; I use DotFit Whey Smooth)

• 1/4 cup brown sugar (or coconut sugar)

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter or coconut oil

• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk; try Mootopia for extra protein 😉)

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (or sugar-free for an even healthier option)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil or a baking mat like mine.

2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, protein powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt.

3. Add the wet ingredients: Mix the melted butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.

4. Add in the chocolate chips: Mix the chocolate chips into the dough until evenly distributed.

5. Shape the cookies: Scoop the dough with a spoon and place them on the baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your fingers or a fork.

6. Bake: Bake the cookies for 8–10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep them soft.

7. Cool and enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. This helps them solidify before transferring them.
