Ingredients

Scale

Chocolate Chip Protein Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (heat treated)
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2–4 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Chocolate Protein Cookie Dough

  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour (heat treated)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup chocolate protein powder
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2–4 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Funfetti Protein Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (heat treated)
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2–4 tbsp milk of choice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Heat the flour: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the whole wheat flour on high for 60-90 seconds. Stir the flour, then heat again for 30 seconds until it reaches a temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it’s safe to eat raw.
  2. Combine dry ingredients: Transfer the heat-treated flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the protein powder and, if making the chocolate version, add the unsweetened cocoa powder. Stir well to combine all dry ingredients evenly.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the pure maple syrup, melted coconut oil, 2 tablespoons of milk of your choice, and vanilla extract (use 1 tsp for chocolate chip and chocolate versions, 2 tsp for funfetti). Stir thoroughly to form a dough. If the mixture feels dry or crumbly, add an additional 1-2 tablespoons of milk and mix again.
  4. Fold in mix-ins: Gently fold in mini chocolate chips for the chocolate chip and chocolate versions, or rainbow sprinkles for the funfetti variety, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough.
  5. Chill and serve: Store the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Note that it will harden when chilled, so bring it to room temperature before serving for the best texture. Optionally, portion the dough into individual servings before refrigerating for convenience.

Notes

  • Heat-treating the flour in the microwave is essential to kill any bacteria since this recipe uses raw flour.
  • If the dough is too dry, add milk gradually to achieve a soft, cookie dough texture.
  • Allow refrigerated dough to warm to room temperature before eating, as it can become quite firm when chilled.
  • You can customize the mix-ins based on your preferences—substitute mini chocolate chips or sprinkles as desired.
  • Store the cookie dough in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 4-5 days for optimal freshness.
