LCHF-friendly peanut butter cookies

Published on by Margit ParteiLisa kommentaar

Happy Wednesday night everyone!

So today I’m going to share with you the recipe of these amazing soft nut cookies:

The recipe makes 11 cookies (depending on the size, maybe more or less).

 

What do you need?

  • 100 grams of roasted peanuts

  • 25 grams of protein powder

  • 1 egg

  • sweetener to your taste

  • 8 grams of dark chocolate (I used Vivani 92%)

  • 10 grams of coconut flakes

  • a food processor

  • an oven

 

How do you make them?

First off pour your peanuts into the food processor and let them go in there for about 10 minutes, mixing in between. That way you basically get peanut butter. To that, add protein powder, sweetener and egg, let the food processor go for about a minute. Now you shoud have a pretty smooth doughball. 

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper / baking papaer. Divide batter into even pieces, I got 11 little pieces. Form into cookies. Roll in coconut flakes and put a tiny piece of chocolate on top (optional). Put into an 180C oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Let them cool down and enjoy. They are also great as breakfast with Greek yogurt. Or with whipped cream and berries.

 

What about nutrition?

The whole recipe is 865 kcal, 50 g of protein, 22 grams of total carbs (of which 10 grams is fiber), 67 grams of fat.

 

If divided into 11 cookies, 1 cookie is 79 kcal, 4,5 grams of protein, 2 grams of total carbs, 6,1 grams of fat.

Brunch (11.30 AM)

I had a really long day on Thursday and got to bed 30 minutes past midnight which is very late for me. So I slept till 10 AM and had to walk the dog so breakfast actually became brunch at almost noon.

Instead of my regular breakfast I added my lunch-time ricotta snack to my brunch since I knew I wouldn’t have any time for lunch during the day.

Main breakfast:

  • 2 eggs

  • 20 g of sour cream

  • 30 g of cheese

  • 10 g of homemade mayo (blog post with recipe here)

  • 20 g of bacon

  • one homegrown cucumber

  • one homegrown tomato

Extra:

  • 100 g of ricotta

  • 20 g of sour cream

  • 5 g of cocoa

  • sweetener

 

Snack (3 PM)

As a snack I had a piece of cheese and salami sausage, didn’t have the time to take a picture.
 

Dinner (7.30 PM)

  • 200 g of stewed broccoli-cauliflower with cream and cheese

  • 20 g of homemade mayo

  • 175 grams of ovenbaked chicken

  • 2 home made protein balls (blog post coming soon!)

  • 10 g of smoked white fish (not on the picture)

  • 3 almonds
