4-Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites

- Category: Sweet Snacks
Instructions
- Mix the ingredients – In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, vegan protein powder, almond butter, and date syrup. Stir until a thick dough forms.
- Adjust the texture – If the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon of almond milk. If too sticky, add a little more almond flour.
- Fold in chocolate chips – If using, mix in sugar-free chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
- Roll into balls – Use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to form bite-sized balls.
- Chill & enjoy – Refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to firm up or enjoy immediately!
Variations & Substitutions
- Nut-free option – Swap almond flour for oat flour and use sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter.
- Different sweetener – Replace date syrup with maple syrup, honey (if not vegan), or sugar-free syrup (I like NuNaturals…code HEALTHYHELPER saves $$!).
- Extra flavor – Add a pinch of cinnamon, sea salt, or a splash of vanilla extract.
- Boost the crunch – Mix in chopped nuts, cacao nibs, or shredded coconut.
Storage Tips
- Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
- Freezer: Freeze for up to three months for a quick grab-and-go snack.
