Dinosaur Poop Cookies


Ok so the name of these cookies needs work but Alex Martin named them so what else do you expect!  These Low Carb high protein all natural cookies are perfect for those clean eaters with a sweet tooth! 
Two of these cookies is a serving. They are so yummy and you can add PB2 for some peanut flavor, almonds for some good fats or even unsweetened coconut to make it more of a protein bar. Super yummy! 
Preheat oven 350 degrees F
Spray 2 cookie sheets with zero-cal cooking spray (I use coconut oil spray)
Ingredients:
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 3 scoops chocolate whey protein (I like Jay Robb’s brand)
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup xylitol sweetener, granules (or can sub in stevia)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbs unsweetened coco powder 
  • 1 tbs cinnamon (I love cinnamon so the more the better!)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup liquid egg whites
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup Enjoy Life Chocolate chips (or dark chocolate chips)
Combine all ingredients except chocolate chips in one large mixing bowl. Use a fork or wooden spoon to mix well, until all dry ingredients are moisturized. Should leave a thick texture, definitely not pourable. Fold in 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips.
Spoon onto baking sheets in 1-inch balls. Bake for 16 minutes on 350. Remove from sheets and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Makes 36 cookies (18 servings).
