Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine protein powder with almond flour, baking powder and salt. Add egg, nut butter and vanilla extract (if using unflavored protein powder).

Step 3

Using a fork or spatula, stir the protein dough until smooth.

Step 4

If using, fold through the chocolate chips.

Step 5

Scoop out portions of dough and gently shape them into cookies; avoid flattening them too much for a softer texture. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Step 6

Bake in hot oven for 8 to 12 minutes. Do not overbake or they will get dry; your protein cookies will firm up further as they cool.
