When it comes to creating your everyday vegan goodies with that extra protein hit, it can be more miss than hit. We love @mealsbymiri version of this classic. She has nailed it. Give them a go..
INGREDIENTS: 25g vegan butter
60g peanut butter
20g sugar
10ml flax seeds + 30ml water
25g White Wolf Nutrition Vanilla Protein Powder
30g soy milk
A pinch of salt
30g whole wheat flour
30g all purpose flour
0.5 tsp baking soda
30g dark vegan chocolate
HOW TO:
Add your 10ml flax seeds and 30ml water to a bowl and stir to combine. Leave to set until it thickens. Mix your butter, peanut butter and sugar together in a bowl. Then stir in your soy milk and flax egg. Mix in your protein powder, salt and baking soda until completely combined. Then add your flours and stir carefully. Make sure not to over mix the flour. You might need to knead the dough lightly to incorporate all of your dry ingredients. Finally, chop your chocolate into chunks and fold it in. Divide the dough into 4-5 portions (depending on how big you want your cookies to be) and flatten them out on a tray lined with parchment paper. These won't spread in the oven so make sure to flatten them properly into round discs before baking.
Bake for 10 minutes in an oven preheated to 180C. Leave to cook for a few minutes on the tray before transferring to a wired rack and leave to cool completely. Enjoy!
