Perhaps I’ve made it my mission in life to make as many versions of healthy edible cookie dough as possible because not only do I have an entire eBook dedicated to cookie dough recipes but this might also be my fourth or fifth one I’ve posted on my blog.
Safe to say that I LOVE cookie dough.
This recipe takes just a couple of minutes to throw together and you are ready to start inserting a spoon.
This cookie dough freezer well too! Unlike healthy cookie dough made using coconut oil, this dough tastes even better when it’s rolled into balls and frozen for a bite sized snack right out of the freezer!
Healthy cookie dough that tastes just like the real thing!!!
Ingredients
- 1/2 c gluten-free oat flour
- 32g vanilla protein powder (I used PEScience Gourmet Vanilla 30% OFF code PBCHOCO)
- 2 tbsp. baking stevia or granulated sweetener of choice
- 2 tbsp. light butter*
- 2 tbsp. water
- 2 tbsp. sugar-free chocolate chips*
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a bowl, stir together flour, protein and sugar.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter.
- Pour melted butter, vanilla and water into dry ingredients and stir using a fork until a dough forms.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Serve immediately or roll dough into 5 equally sized balls and freeze 2-4 hours before serving.
Notes
For vegan replace butter with a vegan buttery spread such as Earth Balance and chocolate chips with dairy-free chips such as Enjoy Life. Note: Macros will change slightly.

CAN I USE COCONUT OR ALMOND FLOUR INSTEAD OF THE OAT FLOUR?.

Hi Kelly! Almost flour will probably work better than coconut. Just keep in mind the consistency might change. If it’s too wet, try adding a little more protein. Hope this helps!

Do you think white whole wheat flour could work?
