These no-bake Peanut Butter Protein Cookies are the perfect way to get your daily collagen dose. Super easy to make, these delicious cookies are sugar-free, low-carb, keto, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free and flourless!
I am partnering with Pharmafreak for today's recipe. All of the concepts, ideas, and visuals are my own.
Summer is in full swing and I really didn't feel like turning on the oven for today's recipe, so as a result, I present you with these delicious, super chewy, Reese-flavored collagen protein cookies.
Why collagen instead of whey this time?
I'm turning 36 this summer, that is why. My body is getting noisier than that old Jeep I used to own. It feels like all my joints have an opinion now and they're arguing with each other as I walk around the house.
They say collagen has several health benefits, including relieving joint pain. Yes, please.
So I am giving it a go. You'll see a lot more collagen protein recipes on my blog from now on, and I know I'm going to make a lot of people happy. You're welcome, you noisy bastards! (Just playing)
