So, here's a new and fun way to enjoy
0:03
this fall season, especially when
0:07
whoever in your family is going to go
0:09
crazy with PSL, with pumpkin spice. This
0:13
is a fun, high protein pumpkin cookie
0:18
with chocolate chips. You can make it as
0:20
light, as tasty, or as amazing as you
0:24
want it to be. And for those who care,
0:26
each cookie has about 12 grams of
0:30
protein. Let's take a look at how to
0:32
make these high protein pumpkin cookies.
0:36
Now, while you can just use a whole egg
0:39
to make these cookies to kind of
0:40
increase the protein quotient of this
0:43
recipe, I'm also adding in some egg
0:45
whites. Also, what I learned while
0:47
experimenting with these cookies is oat
0:49
flour tends to work the best to make
0:52
sure that the cookies end up being
0:55
really moist once they're done baking.
0:58
Something like flour would take up too
1:02
much moisture since we're not making a
1:05
traditional cookie. It's made with like
1:07
whey protein and we really want the
1:11
moisture in the center, on the edges,
1:14
everywhere in the cookie to be perfect.
1:16
So, I'm adding in my oat flour, the
1:19
pumpkin spice flavored protein powder,
1:21
some baking powder, my homemade pumpkin
1:24
spice. Make sure you check out how to
1:26
make it down below, some salt, and then
1:28
whisking all those dry ingredients
1:31
together. Then for the wet, we have egg
1:35
and an egg white along with some maple
1:37
syrup. I love that in desserts. Then
1:39
some pumpkin puree, some vanilla, as
1:42
much as you want really. And then some
1:44
coconut oil. Now add the dry to the wet.
1:49
Fold in some chocolate chips as well.
1:52
And once you've mixed it all really
1:54
nicely, here's what you will see. It'll
1:56
be kind of wet. And what's really
1:58
helpful is to use a scooper just like
2:00
this to just scoop out a couple of
2:03
portions. And once you have it scooped
2:05
out, use the back of a spoon to kind of
2:07
flatten it a bit. Spread it out. Leave
2:10
them kind of thick. I love them like
2:14
Of course, the thinner you go, the
2:16
shorter would be the baking time. Top it
2:18
off with some chocolate chips if you
2:20
want. And now they're going to go in the
2:25
Once they're done, oh, you're in for a
2:27
surprise. And this is coming from
2:29
somebody who is not really a huge fan.
2:31
Not your biggest pumpkin spice kind of
2:33
guy. Um, my wife really wanted some
2:36
pumpkin spice. He's a fun way to have
2:38
it. And even I absolutely am in love
2:41
with it. I think it's a chocolate
2:43
honestly that's on here that makes it
2:45
even more special. But I did try a
2:47
couple of them without the chocolates as
2:49
I was testing the actual recipe and they
2:51
are pretty good just by themselves as
2:54
well. Now tell me that that does not
2:56
look absolutely incredible. Go on now,
3:01
make your cookies, and I'll see you in
