The almond butter, protein powder, and eggs within this recipe all help contribute to your daily protein intake. If using gluten free protein powder and cocoa powder, this recipe can be gluten-free along with dairy free, therefore making it enjoyable across various diets.

A note about cocoa powder: most powders are naturally dairy free being that it comes from the fatty portion of the cacao bean. However, some cocoa powders have dairy additives, such as milk powder, milk fat, milk solids, or butter oil.

So, if you are aiming for a dairy free cookie, you’ll want to stay away from cocoa powder that contains those dairy ingredients.

When can I eat these cookies?

The answer to that is: Whenever you would like!

Personally, I either have them as an after dinner snackum or even as breakfast.

The combination of the almond butter, protein powder, and eggs, truly lend themselves to a hardy and filling breakfast along with a sweet dessert. With only 2/3 cup of sugar within the whole recipe, each individual cookie only has 0.0278 cups of sugar if your recipe yields 24 cookies.

Some additional facts about the individual cookie:

184 calories, contains 12g of fat, 14g of carb, and 7g of protein.

I don’t know about you, but this cookie keeps sounding better and better! So, what are you doing still reading this? Go make these delicious, healthy cookies right now!
