High-protein, low-carb pumpkin cookies made in the blender with cottage cheese, almond flour, and dark chocolate chips. A soft, spiced fall treat with just 1.9g net carbs per cookie!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add all the wet ingredients to your blender - pumpkin puree, cottage cheese, egg, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy. This helps break down the cottage cheese for that soft cookie texture.
    1/3 cup Pumpkin Puree, 1/3 cup full-fat cottage cheese, 1 large egg, 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract - sugar free
  • Next, add the dry ingredients right into the blender - almond flour, baking powder, sweetener, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Blend again until a thick cookie dough forms.
    5/4 cup almond flour, 2 tablespoons Swerve (granulated), 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon Ground Ginger, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • Fold in the chocolate chips with a spoon or spatula. Do not blend them! You want those gooey bits to stay whole.
    2 tablespoons Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips
  • Scoop the dough onto your lined baking sheet using a medium cookie scoop or a spoon.
  • Gently flatten the tops of the cookies. They will not spread much, so shape them how you want them to bake.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Mine were perfect at 13 - golden brown at the edges and set in the center.
  • Let them cool on the tray for 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. They will feel soft but firm up as they cool.

Notes

  • If the dough feels too wet to scoop, add a little more almond flour.
  • If too dry, stir in more blended cottage cheese or a splash of almond milk.
  • These cookies don’t spread much, so shape them before baking.
  • Skipping the chocolate chips saves carbs.
  • Want extra protein? Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla protein powder and reduce almond flour slightly.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temp for 3 days, fridge for 1 week, or freeze for longer.
