Healthy Collagen Cookie Bars

  • Author: Lauren

Description

These rich, chewy, delicious gluten, dairy, coconut & refined sugar-free collagen cookie bars are exactly what you need in your life! They only require 10 ingredients & are super easy to throw together!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 1/4 cup Avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp Pink salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup M&M’s or dark chocolate chips (I like these dairy-free ones)
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate (preserve 1/4 cup to melt & drizzle over the top)
  • 1/2 cup collagen peptides (optional, but I find really help make these cookies super chewy)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F & line a square baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Mix the avocado oil & coconut sugar together in a medium-large bowl.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients for the cookie bars to combine & mix until everything is well incorporated, adding the M&M’s & white chocolate last.
  4. Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish & spread evenly.
  5. I like to add a couple M&M’s & white chocolate over the top.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven & let cool slightly in the pan for at least 15 minutes. This gives a super fudgey & chewy final cookie bar. 
  8. Feel free to drizzle a bit of the melted white chocolate over top & then cut into bars.
  9. Enjoy!

Notes

*Let cool before cutting into the bars or they may slightly fall apart. Cooling them slightly allows them to firm up & really helps give the bars that chewy & fudgey texture!
