INGREDIENTS
- Wet ingredients:
- 1 c pumpkin puree
- 1/2 c liquid egg whites
- 1 c nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cake batter extract
- 1 c pumpkin puree
- Dry Ingredients:
- 2/3 c Vanilla Protein Powder, used The Peachie Spoon (the best for baking)
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 2/3 c Vanilla Protein Powder, used The Peachie Spoon (the best for baking)
-
Spiced Cream Cheese Icing:
- 1 - 8 oz 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup confectioners sugar replacement (used Swerve brand)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon or pps
- 1 - 8 oz 1/3 less fat cream cheese, softened
STEPS
-
In a large bowl, combine wet ingredients and stir. Add dry ingredients and stir to combine.
-
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. I didn’t use mine and they spread some but still turned out great.
-
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. I like to microwave mine for 15-20 seconds before enjoying.

Could you use a vegan vanilla protein instead of whey?

I haven’t tried! It’ll affect the texture some and may have to bake longer
This flavor combo was delish! Even swapping almond extract for the cake extract as I had it on my shelf. Quick question – my cookies needed another 10-15m to set and not be spongy in the center. Which ended up not super fluffy or pillowy? Have you run into that before? Thanks for all you do!

Ovens can vary for sure. I let mine cool on a rack to really dry out. Hope this helps! So glad you liked them
Can you make this printable?

Yes! I’ll let me website team know. Thanks for telling me.
What can I use in place of protein powder or can I just eliminate and not substitute?

It’s the sweetener also and a main ingredient for this recipe. Not sure it’ll work.
These cookies were absolutely amazing! Fluffy clouds of pumpkin goodness, with a perfect amount of sweetness in the cream cheese frosting. I will definitely be baking these on repeat. Peachie protein powder is absolutely the BEST, especially for baking!!
