Vanilla Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut butter is hands down one of my favorite foods! I don't think it is any secret that I also love cookies! Put the two together, and you have what I call Perfection!!

Also known as Vanilla Peanut Butter Cookies! 

Simple and healthy ingredients!

Jamie Eason Vanilla Whey, Jamie Eason Peanut Protein (defatted powdered peanut butter), canned white beans, canned pumpkin, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, egg substitute, baking powder, vanilla, and sweetener of choice.

*any canned white bean will work - great northern, navy, chickpeas, garbanzo*

*sub any milk*

Drain and rinse your beans well.  Puree beans, pumpkin, egg, milk, and vanilla.  Stir in remaining ingredients.  

Depending on what beans and protein powder you use, you may need to add a little extra liquid to blend and mix smooth.  It will be a pudding like consistency.  

I highly suggest using a baking mat or parchment paper.  This batter will stick!

 Drop the batter onto your cookie sheet.  I got 12 cookies.  

Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.  Be careful not to over bake or they will dry out.  

Now that is a perfect plate of cookies!!

All 12 cookies are only 246 calories! 

They are high protein and low fat.  I love having the entire batch for breakfast! 

I love baking with Jamie Eason Peanut Protein.  It is a powdered peanut protein that is much lower in fat and calories compared to regular peanut butter.  

You just mix it with some water to make it like the real thing! 

 Want to make those Peanut Butter Cookies even better?!

Shmear a little of the peanut butter between two cookies and enjoy the best little Peanut Butter Sandwich ever!

So whether you eat them as is...

 I know you will love these healthy, soft, and tasty Vanilla Peanut Butter Cookies!

 Store them in the fridge or freezer for a cold, creamy dessert! 

 Guilt free of course!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

I recently received a very generous and wonderful package of peanut butter from 

Peanut Butter & Co.  

I did a full review on their fantastic peanut butter that you can check out here. Since I had enough peanut butter to feed a small village, I decided to try baking some cookies with it! 

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies!! 

All you will need is...

Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter, canned pumpkin, chocolate protein powder, quick oats, vanilla, baking powder, and sweetener if you want. 

*You can use any flavor of peanut butter and protein! Get creative!!*

Mix together all your ingredients in one bowl.  

Super simple!

I usually don't even measure the peanut butter...one BIG spoonful!!

Heaven on a spoon!

 The batter will be kinda sticky.  Just make drop cookies on your baking sheet.  I highly recommend a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.  

I got ten nice sized cookies.  Into the oven which is preheated at 350 for 15-18 minutes.  Of course you can make them bigger or smaller and just adjust the baking time.  

Get ready... Your house is going to smell absolutely amazing!!

Is there anything better than chocolate peanut butter cookies?!

What if I told you that the entire batch is only 300 calories?!

True story!!! You can eat all ten cookies with no guilt! 

I love having these for breakfast after a tough workout.  

They are also packed with 20 grams of protein! I don't know about you, but I love cookies for breakfast!

 With all the different kinds of peanut butter and protein out there, the flavor possibilities are really endless!
