Peanut butter protein cookies

Ingredients

1 ripe banana 

2 tsp chia seeds 

3 tbsp golden flax seeds 

1 tbsp peanut flour 

340g vanilla protein powder 

2 tbsp mini dairy free chocolate chips 

Instructions

Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C/350°F/ gas 4 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Using a hand mixer or a potato masher, blend the banana until it is a smooth and creamy consistency. Add the chia and flax seeds to the banana and mix until they are well combined. Then, stir in the protein powder and peanut flour and mix until just combined. Do not over mix the protein powder and flour as the banana batter will become too hard. 

Using your hands, fold the chocolate chips into the batter. You should now have enough batter to make 6 cookies. Use an ice cream scoop to divide the batter and, with the palm of your hand, spread the portions of batter into a cookie shape, as these cookies do not rise in the oven. 

Bake the cookies for around 8 minutes until they have turned golden brown and have a firm texture. Remove the cookies from the oven and place them on a rack to cool for 10 minutes before devouring.
