Author AZ@...And A Dash of Cinnamon

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 1 T tahini
  • 3 T chocolate protein powder
  • several dashes cinnamon
  • 1/2 t almond extract
  • 1 T chia seeds
  • 1 T coconut flour
  • 4 T water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper

  2. Mix the almond meal, protein powder, coconut flour, cinnamon and chia seeds in a bowl.

  3. Add your tahini and almond extract

  4. Mix in your water tablespoon by tablespoon until you get a dough that is firm and easy to mold

  5. Feel free to make any shape, but I decided to make rectangular blocks for my cookies 

  6. Bake for 10 minutes, or until just firm 

  7. Let cool for a few minutes, eat and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container

Recipe Notes

  1. I used a plant based protein powder for this recipe
  2. If you do not want a strong taste of almond, lower the extract amount to 1/4t
  3. The amount of liquid you add will depend on how absorbent your protein powder is. That is why I suggest adding a tablespoon at a time. You do not want your dough to be wet
