Protein Sugar Cookies (Crumbl Copycat)

You are loving these Crumbl Copycat protein cookies, and this is one of the most requested flavors. I tried several batches and found that pumpkin puree makes the best thick texture. So they’re a little orange but worked the best IMO and yay for some vitamin A, ha. Hope you love these! Holiday sprinkles are always so fun, too. 

INGREDIENTS

Wet:

• 1 c pumpkin puree (can’t taste promise)
• 1/2 c liquid egg whites
• 1 c nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp butter extract (on my Amazon & Walmart)
• 1/2 tsp almond extract

   

Dry:

• 2/3 c The Peachie Spoon Vanilla Protein Powder
• 1/2 c coconut flour 
• ¼ c monk fruit granulated sweetener (optional) 
• 2 tsp baking soda 
• 1/2 tsp salt 

Cream Cheese Icing

• 1 - 8 oz 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened 
• 1/3 c nonfat Greek yogurt
• 1/3 c confectioners sugar replacement @swervesweetie
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp butter extract

 

COOKIE - STEPS

1.  In a large bowl, combine wet ingredients and stir. Add dry ingredients and stir to combine. 

2. On a large lined sheet pan, form into 6 large cookie shapes. Mine were about 1/2 cup of batter a piece. If you have an XL sheet pan, use that.

3. Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes. Place on a cookie rack to cool. After cooling, make icing below if desired. Store in the fridge for up to a week. 
   

ICING - STEPS

1. While the cookies bake, stir icing ingredients in a bowl and place in the fridge to thicken up.

2. Once cookies have cooled, spread or pipe in a swirl over cookies. I scooped mine into a sandwich baggie and cut a corner to pipe. Sprinkle each cookie with cinnamon, if desired. Store in the fridge for up to a week. Makes 6 cookies.
