PB2 is a staple in our house. It gives yogurt a great peanut butter flavor and it’s an easy addition to baked goods.

If you’ve never made pb2 cookies, you’re in for a literal treat! These cookies made with pb2 powder have the perfect peanut flavor without feeling overbearing.

Peanut butter powder is a dry, dehydrated form of peanuts, created by pressing roasted peanuts to remove most of the oil and then grinding them into a fine powder.

Therefore, peanut flour has a lower fat content compared to traditional peanut butter, since most of the oil has been removed. Many people like to use it for lower fat and calorie content, but I truly enjoy its taste!

Some people may see these powdered peanut butter cookies as healthier, but I just happen to like the extra protein and slight peanut flavor from the powdered peanut butter

I regularly use powdered peanut butter in my favorite cookie dough overnight oats, and those also came out great. This is another of those easy pb2 recipes that you’ll want to make over and over again.

Why You’ll Love Powdered Peanut Butter Cookies

I initially tested this PB2 cookie recipe because we have a huge tub of pb2. I didn’t expect them to be such a hit, but now my kids ask for these powdered peanut butter cookies every week!

We love them because:

• More protein– It’s nice to have a little extra protein in a cookie. It makes them more filling, making you snack less. Each of these powdered peanut butter cookies has 7 grams of protein! Here are some other protein ideas for kids.
• Great for kids – When I make snacks, they HAVE to be attractive to my kids because I want to double up my efforts and have snacks for both adults and kids. Our kids love peanut butter flavor in just about everything, so these cookies with pb2 were a huge hit.
• Back to school snack – These high protein cookies make for a great back to school snack, or lunchbox addition!
• High Fiber – We love using oat flour in these cookies as well for the additional fiber and micronutrients, plus it’s gluten-free (make sure you find a certified gluten-free oat flour). Fiber helps to stabilize blood sugar and also helps with satiety.

Many of my favorite easy toddler snacks are high in protein mainly so my kids aren’t asking for a new snack every minute. It makes such a difference when they don’t just eat carbs and sugar all day.

Believe me – I love my carbs and they ARE important. But, we’ve gotta get some protein in there too, and peanut butter flour is a great way to do so.

Ingredients

Here’s what you need for these high protein pb2 cookies (each cookie has 7 grams of protein)!

We buy most of these ingredients in bulk from Costco or Thrive Market, so we always have them on hand.

• peanut butter flour – I use pb2 or pbfit. I also love the chocolate version but it may have more added sugars.
• oat flour – grind your own or buy pre-ground version
• coconut oil
• eggs – I didn’t test these without eggs as a vegan version and I don’t think egg-less would produce the same consistency. However, you could try using a flax egg if you’re vegan.
• maple syrup
• salt
• cinnamon
• baking soda
• vanilla

How to Make Cookies with PB2

Making peanut butter powder cookies isn’t as difficult as you may think; the peanut powder acts just like a flour.

When we mix peanut flour with light and airy oat flour, the result in these pb2 peanut butter cookies is fantastic.

Unlike my popular coconut flour oatmeal cookies, which are slightly denser, this peanut butter powder cookie recipe is soft, light and delicate.

Start by mixing your wet and dry ingredients separately, then combining them together into one large bowl.

Using a cookie scooper, form the batter into small cookie shapes on parchment paper or a silicone liner. I like to then flatten them slightly before baking.

You’ll bake for 8-10 minutes, and then you have a nice healthy treat!

They are literally ready in the time it takes you to load or empty the dishwasher and tidy up a bit.

Let them cool on a drying rack for 15-20 minutes, or dig in sooner if you can’t wait.

Storage

To store your powdered peanut butter cookies, let the cookies cool completely, and store in a tight ziplock bag or tupperware container on the counter for up to 3-4 days.

Pb2 cookies also freeze well. Place in a freezer-safe container, and freeze for up to 3 months. We use stasher bags alot for these.
