Print Recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (32g) I used PEScience vanilla
1 tbsp coconut flour (7g)
1 tbsp granulated stevia or sugar, maple syrup, honey
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (122g)
3 tbsp egg whites (46g)
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp mini chocolate chips (14g)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 °F. Spray a 8-inch skillet with cookie spray.
In a medium bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix until they are combined and there is no clumps.
Add the wet ingredients and mix well until combined.
Pour cookie dough batter into the skillet and sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out mostly clean. *See notes below for cooking time variances.
Let cool in skillet for a couple of minutes, then enjoy!

Notes

*If cooking with bakeware other than cast iron, cooking times are usually 2-3x longer.

It also depends on the depth of the dish you're using. Using a shallow dish = less time; deeper dish = more time.

Just make sure to watch closely and take out when a toothpick inserted in the center of the cookie comes out mostly clean.

The cookie will still cook some in the dish once it's removed from the oven, so remove when you think it's just about done.
