Girl Scout Cookie season is in full-swing, and I am dreaming of my favorite cookies: Tagalongs. These crisp shortbread cookies are filled with creamy peanut butter and coated in a blanket of milk chocolate for a delicious melt-and-your-mouth bite. But, I've taken the Tagalong to the next level; introducing my No-Bake Tagalong Cookie Bites, a gluten-free, high-protein bite that is loaded with better-for-you ingredients. These bites come together in a matter of minutes for the perfect sweet treat in a pinch!
¼CupCollagen Peptides or Unflavored Protein Powderthis is equivalent to 2 scoops
¼CupMaple Syrup
⅔CupCreamy Peanut Butter
¾CupMini Chocolate Chips
Instructions
To make these protein bites, start by adding all of the ingredients to a food processor: the ground flaxseed meal, almond flour, collagen peptides or protein powder, maple syrup, creamy peanut butter, and mini chocolate chips.
Use a rubber spatula or spoon to mix the ingredients together until they're fully combined.
Next, process the ingredients together for 30 seconds, until the ingredients come together and a dough forms.
Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out some of the dough until 12 balls form. Place each ball onto the baking sheet and repeat until all of the dough has been formed.
Sprinkle each ball with a pinch of flaky sea salt, then serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container, in the fridge, for up to one week.
