Cookie Dough Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (2%)
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (33 grams)
- 1 3/4 cups almond flour
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and vanilla whey protein powder. Whisk the mixture until it is completely smooth and well-incorporated.
- Add Almond Flour: Stir in the almond flour using a spatula until the mixture reaches your desired cookie dough consistency. Note that the thickness may vary depending on the yogurt, so you can adjust by adding more almond flour for a thicker dough or a splash of milk for a thinner texture.
- Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips with a few gentle stirs to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.
- Serve and Enjoy: Your Greek Yogurt Cookie Dough is now ready to eat. Enjoy it immediately as a delicious and nutritious snack or refrigerate briefly if preferred.
Notes
- You can adjust the thickness of the cookie dough by adding a little more almond flour if the yogurt is too runny or a small amount of milk if it’s too thick.
- Use a high-quality vanilla whey protein powder for the best flavor and texture.
- This cookie dough is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use a vegan protein powder.
