How To Make Strawberry Protein Cookies
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mash the strawberries with a fork or pulse them a few times in a food processor until they are slightly chunky.
In a medium bowl, mix the mashed strawberries, protein powder, coconut flour, and baking powder until everything is well combined.
Scoop the dough with a tablespoon and place six mounds onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes, until they feel firm to the touch. Don’t let them overbake.
Take the cookies out of the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. Enjoy once they are fully cooled.
Tips
- Use whey concentrate protein powder for the best texture. Whey isolate might make the cookies dry and rubbery.
- If the dough feels too dry, add a tablespoon or two of milk or water until it reaches the right consistency.
- For bigger strawberry pieces, save some of the mashed strawberries and gently fold them in after you’ve mixed the dry ingredients.
- Keep the cookies fresh by storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay good for up to one week.
