Step 1

Place a rack in the centre of your oven and preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, coconut sugar, salt, egg, egg white, and vanilla extract. Mix quickly until the ingredients are well blended. Sprinkle the baking soda over the top. With a rubber spatula, work in the Kinetica Whey Protein and coconut flour until well combined. They will seem very dry at first but will continue to come together as you stir. Fold in chocolate chips.

Step 3

The dough should now be slightly sticky, but not a total mushy mess. If you need a firmer dough, add a bit more protein powder. For a looser dough, sprinkle the batter with a bit of milk (of choice) and with a spatula, fold it in until the dough comes together.

Step 4

With a spoon, portion the cookie dough by tablespoonfuls and drop it onto your prepared baking tray (you will have 12-14 cookies total). With your fingers, gently flatten the tops of the cookies, as they will not spread but will puff up during baking.

Step 5

Bake for 5 to 6 minutes, until the edges are barely golden brown and dry to the touch but the middles seem fairly doughy. Do not overbake! Place the tray on a wire rack and allow the cookies to cool on the baking tray for 3 minutes before transferring them directly to the wire rack to finish cooling.
