We all need something sweet in our lives, and I am no exception, so if we are going to eat something sweet, let's make it delicious and healthy, too.

These are my protein cookies; they last up to a week in the fridge, and I use either Huel or Ph.D. as a protein source.

Makes 12 cookies

Ingredients

250 g (9 oz) chunky peanut butter
75 g (3 oz) honey
1 large egg
75 g (3 oz) chocolate whey protein powder
100 ml (3½ fl oz) milk
40 g (1½ oz) white chocolate drops

Equipment 30 cm x 22 cm x 2.5 cm (12 in x 9 in x 1 in) baking trays

Protein Check

Each cookie contains about 10 grams of protein.

Preheat the oven to 180°C/400°F/gas mark 6. Line the baking trays with greaseproof paper.
Place all the ingredients except the chocolate drops into a mixing bowl. Mix to a dough, then add the chocolate drops. Divide the mixture into 12 balls and place on the baking trays. Bake for 12 minutes.
Remove from the oven and use the back of a fork to gently press the cookies down. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool. Store in an airtight container until ready to eat.
