    Zubereitung

    1
    Preheat the oven to 180 degrees with top and bottom heat.
    2
    Prepare the flaxseed egg. To do this, mix 1 tbsp flaxseeds with 3 tbsp boiling water and let it swell briefly.
    3
    Cream the vegan butter with the maple syrup and coconut blossom sugar, then gradually stir in the applesauce, milk, and vanilla extract. If the ingredients do not combine properly, don't worry - they will later!
    4
    Mix the flour, protein powder, orange zest, baking powder, and salt, and briefly stir this mixture into the batter together with the flaxseed egg. Caution: Do not overmix the batter!
    5
    Carefully fold in the Chocolate Chips and soy crispies.
    6
    Take a 10-minute break - let your dough rest covered in the refrigerator. During this time, preheat the oven to 180 degrees with top and bottom heat.
    7
    Now place 1 tbsp of cookie dough per cookie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten them slightly and top with the remaining Chocolate Chips.
    8
    Into the oven: Bake your protein cookies for about 10-12 minutes. The cookies should be golden brown and slightly crispy around the edges. Don't be alarmed: They will still be very soft inside at first - but they will firm up later.
    9
    Are your cookies an odd shape? Simply take a thick glass, place it over a cookie while it is still warm, and make fairly quick circular movements. This will shape your cookie beautifully in no time.
    10
    Leave the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then let them cool completely on a wire rack. This gives them the perfect consistency.
    11

    You can easily store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

    Recipe Note

    Who can say no to chocolate chip cookies? No one, especially when they're protein cookies with more than 6 g of protein per cookie! 

    Protein cookies with protein powder

    Especially when you're new to high-protein cooking, it can be difficult at first to find recipes with protein powder that also taste delicious and aren't just a lumpy, dry mess. With Vetain's protein cookies, baking with protein powder becomes a simple and delicious experience. Our cookies taste the way cookies should: Deliciously chocolatey and wonderfully soft. You can really only notice the protein powder in the nutritional values.
    Our quick protein cookies are a great basic recipe that you can adapt as you like and use in a variety of ways! The protein cookies are also a great snack for birthdays or parties.

    Make protein cookies yourself

    Vetain's protein chocolate chip cookies count as a source of protein and contain more than 6 g of protein per cookie. We achieve this by using protein powder and protein crispies in our dough. 
    But why make protein cookies yourself? Sure, you can also buy high-protein cookies at the supermarket. However, that can become expensive over time, and protein cookies often aren't exactly the way you like them: They contain more sugar than you want, have the wrong texture, or don't come in your favorite flavor.

    With our vegan cookie recipe, all that is a thing of the past: Now you can decide for yourself when and how you like your cookies best. Protein chocolate chip cookies aren't your thing? Then simply modify the recipe and easily make protein chocolate cookies or nutty cookies. You can also easily whip up cookies with berry flavor. The possibilities are endless!

    And don't worry: Our protein cookie recipe is easy and suitable for beginners too. You don't have to be a master baker to make these cookies.

    Our protein powder: Vetain's Vegan Protein Vanilla

    May I introduce? Vetain's Vegan Protein Vanilla - the clean protein powder at a glance:

    • High-quality multi-component protein

    • Made with organic ingredients

    • Free from gluten and lactose, artificial additives & sucralose

    • High quality: produced in Germany under strict standards and tested in laboratories

      Frequently asked questions

      Vetains protein powder is ideal for baking protein cookies and can be heated to high temperatures without any problems.

      Protein cookies are a convenient snack option for fitness enthusiasts: they contain protein and can be customized to your preferences compared to supermarket products. Plus, they taste super delicious. The question is more: Why NOT bake egg white cookies? ;)

      It's best to store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator (then let them warm up briefly before eating). They keep like this for a few days. Alternatively, you can also freeze them and simply defrost them as needed - a little round in the oven will make them crispy again.
