Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • Author: Lauren

Description

These flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, rich in flavour & have the best texture, not to mention only require a few ingredients! They can be whipped up in a few minutes & are the perfect treat to have on hand!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar (you could also try coconut sugar, or Lakanto to make these low-carb, but I only tried them with brown sugar so far as it was all I had left at home)
  • 1 cup all-natural peanut butter (I used crunchy for extra texture, but smooth will also work)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp pink salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup collagen peptides*
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil (or coconut oil or butter, melted)
  • 1/23/4 cup dark chocolate chips &/or M&Ms (I like these chocolate chips for a dairy-free version)

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the sweetener and peanut butter.
  3. Add in the rest of the ingredients, adding the chocolate chips/M&Ms last.
  4. Scoop a couple tbsp worth of batter up and roll into a ball, placing them on a parchment paper lined baking tray & leaving a couple inches between each cookie.
  5. Bake for 7-8 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Remove them from the oven & leave them on the tray for 10-15 minutes to continue to bake & firm up.
  6. Place them on a plate & store in an air-sealed container.
  7. Enjoy!

Notes

*I haven’t tried these cookies without the collagen peptides yet so I can’t say how they will turn out without them. You could also use your protein powder of choice but each brand & type can vary significantly when baked. Collagen peptides dissolve well in baked goods & give these cookies a chewy texture. You will likely need to use less regular protein powder if you choose to swap that for the collagen. I would start with 1/4 cup to see how it dissolves. You want a thick, sticky batter before baking.
