Got a cookie craving calling your name? Say no more.

Just 4 humble ingredients, one bowl, and about 25 minutes stand between you and a batch of soft, chocolatey banana cookies. No fancy equipment, no mile-long ingredient list, and absolutely no fuss. Just a little banana magic, a swirl of tahini, a scoop of plant protein, and chocolate chips doing what chocolate chips do best.

These are the kind of cookies that come together while the oven preheats and vanish before they've even properly cooled. You've been warned 🤍

Why You'll Love It

🌱 100% plant based 🍌 Naturally sweetened with banana 💪 Boosted with vanilla plant protein 🍪 Soft, cakey, choc-loaded texture ⚡ Only 4 ingredients and 5 minutes of prep

Method

1. Mash Pop your bananas in a bowl and mash them until smooth and gloriously gloopy. The riper, the better, this is where all the natural sweetness sneaks in.

2. Mix Add the tahini, vanilla plant protein, and creatine (if you're using it). Stir until you've got a thick, dreamy cookie dough.

3. Fold Tip in the chocolate chips and fold them through so every cookie gets its fair share of melty goodness.

4. Shape Spoon dollops onto a lined tray and gently flatten into cookie shapes. They won't spread much, so shape them how you'd like them to bake.

5. Bake Bake at 180°C for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden and your kitchen smells absolutely unreal.

Cool Let them rest for a few minutes to firm up... if you can resist that long.

FAQs about 4-Ingredient Banana Protein Cookies

  • Absolutely. It's a totally optional little boost, the cookies turn out just as delicious without it.

  • You can. Vanilla keeps things classic, but Vanilla Cake Batter or Neapolitan would bring their own kind of magic too.

  • Yes. Peanut butter, almond butter, or cashew butter all work beautifully and will gently shift the flavour.

  • Go for it! A sprinkle of cinnamon, a handful of nuts, or extra choc chips never hurt anyone.
