Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 50 grams Whey protein powder (vanilla flavored)
- 100 grams Almond butter
- 70 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk
- 30 grams Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Mix well using a whisk or fork to break any lumps.
In a separate large bowl, beat together the almond butter, sugar, and egg until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer or whisk. Add the vanilla extract and almond milk to the mixture and mix again until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too dry, you can add an extra tablespoon of almond milk.
Fold in the sliced almonds into the dough, mixing until they are evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Gently flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to give them a nice cookie shape.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your high protein delicious almond cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
