Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup almond butter at room temperature
- 2/3 cup sweetener powdered
- 1/2 cup protein powder
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1/4 cup almond milk unsweetened
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Add the almond butter, powdered sweetener, protein powder, cocoa powder, eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.
- Using a silicone spatula, mix all the ingredients together until a smooth, uniform dough forms. Ensure all the ingredients are well incorporated and there are no lumps.
- Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten each cookie with the back of the spoon.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are completely cooled, enjoy your delicious flourless chocolate cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
