Equipment

Ingredients

1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
1/4 cup soy milk, or another plant-based milk, (60ml)
2/3 cup plant-based protein powder,* vanilla, chocolate, etc., (70g)
1/3 cup peanut butter, creamy, (75g)
2 tbsp cane sugar
2 tbsp vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick mat.
Stir the flaxseed meal and plant milk together in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes so it can thicken.
Add in the nut butter, cane sugar, and protein powder. Combine everything by stirring, cutting, and mashing the ingredients together.
Scoop out 1.5 tablespoon-sized amounts of the thick and sticky cookie dough. Roll them into balls and place them on the lined cookie sheet 1-2 inches apart.
Flatten the cookie dough balls into 1/2 inch round discs with your hands. Top them with chocolate chips by slightly pressing them in.
Bake the cookies for 9-10 minutes or until you start to see a slight golden tint to them. Let them cool for 15 minutes so they can firm up.

The cookie dough consistency can vary depending on the types and brands of the protein powder and peanut butter used. Add a small amount of plant milk if the dough feels too dry and resistant when stirring.
