Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter (or nut/seed butter of choice)
  • 1 tbsp honey (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 4 tbsp chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the almond flour, vanilla protein powder, and a pinch of sea salt to the wet mixture. Stir continuously until a cohesive cookie dough forms without any lumps.
  3. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips throughout the dough to evenly distribute the chocolatey goodness without breaking them.
  4. Chill for Best Texture: You can enjoy the cookie dough immediately for a softer texture or refrigerate it for a few hours to thicken it up, achieving the perfect edible cookie dough consistency.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Scoop out portions to enjoy as a healthy, high-protein snack or dessert any time of the day.

Notes

  • For a vegan option, substitute Greek yogurt with a dairy-free yogurt and use a plant-based protein powder.
  • Adjust the sweetener to taste or swap honey for maple syrup, agave, or your preferred sweetener.
  • Use any nut or seed butter of your choice to personalize flavor and nutrition.
  • Almond flour can be replaced with coconut flour but adjust quantity as coconut flour absorbs more moisture.
  • Store the cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
