The BEST low calorie pumpkin cookies

these were to die for!!!! so yummy!!! I would 10/10 would recommend.

they didn’t taste like protein and are very moist

ingredients:

2 scoops vanilla protein powder

60g all purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

60g egg whites

1 tsp vanilla extract

40g swerve

223 g pumpkin puree

about tsp cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice

for frosting:

98g 1/3 fat cream cheese (honestly could do less depending on how many cookies you make. I made them big so I had 8 cookies.)

about 2 tablespoons of swerve or substitute sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

set your oven to 360F

grab a medium size mixing bowl and combine all your wet ingredients and combine. once all combined add your dry ingredients mix until there’s no clumps and you get a cookie dough consistency. I used an ice cream scoop to measure out the dough into a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

bake 10-15mins or until your toothpick comes out clean.

When they are done let them rest for about 20 mins in the meantime whip up your frosting. Place the cream cheese, vanilla extract and sugar into a bowl and combine. (note that your cream cheese should be at room temp.)

once your cookies are cooled you can evenly distribute the frosting onto each cookie and then enjoy :) (ps i topped mine off with cinnamon too just for funzies.)
