Craving a chocolatey snack packed with protein that’s also vegan? Our vegan protein cookie recipe is perfect for anyone looking for a plant-based snack before or after a workout. And the best part? Thanks to our vegan WAM Protein, each cookie provides around 21 g of protein!
Our cookies are sweetened mainly with ripe banana and rely on plant-based protein sources rather than whey protein.

These cookies aren’t just for vegans – they’re for anyone who wants an easy way to add some protein to their day.
Recipe for High Protein Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana (about 100g)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- 35g peanut butter (crunchy preferred!)
- 40g vegan protein powder (e.g., WAM Protein Chocolate Hazelnut)
- 5g cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 20g oats
- 15g chocolate chips (or more, if you like)
Preparation:
Mash the banana thoroughly in a bowl until it’s nice and creamy.
Add the vanilla essence, peanut butter, protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, and oats, and mix everything until a firm cookie dough forms. Then fold in the chocolate chips.
Shape the dough into two equal-sized balls and press them flat onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven at 180°C for about 10-15 minutes, until they’re firm on the outside but not too dark.
Vegan Protein Cookies: A Perfect Choice!
Unlike many store-bought protein bars, these cookies are free from palm oil and humectants like glycerin. They’re a simple way to add plant protein to your day – and protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. The combination of oats, peanut butter and vegan protein powder gives you a good mix of carbohydrates, protein and fat.
You can customise this recipe to your liking by experimenting with different flavours or swapping the peanut butter for another nut butter. You can also replace the chocolate chips with dried blueberries, for example, or add a bit of agave syrup or stevia if you prefer a sweeter cookie.
Whether you’re a fan of chocolate, peanut butter, or vegan protein cookies in general—this recipe is for you! With just a few ingredients, you can make a delicious, protein-rich cookie that’s perfect as a sweet snack on the go or after a workout.
