    Healthy Funfetti Cake Batter Cookies Recipe

    Healthy and easy Funfetti Cake Batter Cookies recipe! This is the BEST gluten free cookie recipe you'll ever try! Plus, this cake batter cookie is soft and chewy oil free, low carb, and high protein too.

    A Healthy Funfetti Cake Batter Cookie Recipe?! 

    Say Whaaaaat?!!! 

    Yep, it's true. This cookie recipe is all kinds of healthy. 

    This cake batter protein cookie is way better than the store bought kind - cough cough Lenny and Larry's. Not to mention, it's just way cheaper to make these than buy those cookies too.

    Lets face it, $3-4 PER COOKIE adds up fast. And I definitely don't have the bank account to support that addiction. 

    However, this cookie isn't just rad because it's cheap.

    No, no, no my friends. 

    This cookie is rad because it's...

    • Cheap
    • Delicous
    • Low in calories 
    • Packs more protein than the store bought kind
    • Is easy to make
    • And is super quick to make too

    There's probably a hundred more reasons, but those 6 came to my head in less than a minute. 

    So, if you love all things cake batter, but want to be healthy too, I think there's no better option to satisfy both of those requirements other than this cookie. I mean, it only has 150 calories, and over 25g of protein.

    How could you not love that?!

    By the way, if you like this recipe, you should totally checkout this peanut butter protein cookie too.

    Cake Batter Protein Cookie Pro-Tips:

     

    1. Use a food scale to weigh-out your ingredients - exact measurements are important for this recipe
    2. Use a high-quality whey protein - this is the one I like and use
    3. Choose a good liquid sweetener - I used this one but I like this one too
    4. You can NEVER go wrong with this coconut flour - I use it in all of my coconut flour based recipes
