Values are for the first option listed in the ingredients; substitutions and variations change them. Carbs exclude fiber; energy uses the EU conversion factors (fiber at 2 kcal/g). Source for sugars and saturated fat: Portuguese Food Composition Database (Base de Dados da Composição de Alimentos), Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, I. P. — INSA, v 7.1 - 2026.

Quantities and times are a starting point: adjust them to your taste. Two things don't change: poultry and ground meat must be cooked all the way through, and allergens — always check the labels.

Highlights Plant protein (peanut) · Fiber (oats)

Protein cookie dough balls

The taste of raw cookie dough, egg-free and ready in ten minutes.

Rico's note: Keep a jar of powdered peanut butter in the pantry just for these — they come to the rescue when a sweet craving hits mid-afternoon.

Ingredients

  • 25 g (1 oz) oat flour
  • 30 g (1 oz) peanut butter (powdered or regular)
  • 25 g (1 oz) cookie or vanilla protein powder
  • salt, to taste
  • 1 cube 85% dark chocolate (10 g) — no added sugar: sugar-free 85% dark chocolate
  • vanilla extract, to taste — optional
  • water or milk, as needed — for the powdered peanut butter and to adjust the batter

Method

  1. If you're using powdered peanut butter, gradually mix it with water or milk into a creamy paste.
  2. In a bowl, combine that paste (or regular peanut butter) with the oat flour, protein powder and a pinch of salt, and mix well until it all comes together.
