PB2 Madagascar Vanilla Powdered Peanut Butter is the main ingredient in these easy to make, powdered peanut cookies. They are the perfect, protein-packed treat, and can be made with vanilla bean icing or without. This post is sponsored by PB2. All views expressed are that of our own.
Chances are, if you are on this post you are also a fan of the mighty delicious PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter and Almond Butter products. The folks at PB2 Foods never cease to amaze me with their very delicious products.
From Powdered Almond Butter to Organic Powdered Peanut Butter, and now Madagascar Vanilla–PB2 Foods has something for everyone.
We love using their powdered peanut butter in smoothies, as a spread for veggies, or in baked treats like these Yummy Double Chocolate Muffins or these No-Bake Protein Balls.
PB2 foods are expertly roasted, plant-based, and were the first powdered peanut products on the market. They also happen to make the perfect protein-packed powdered peanut butter cookies.
Powdered Peanut Butter Cookies
These cookies have a light, spongy taste if I had to peg a texture to them. They are really yummy and the perfect chewiness. I provided my family with an extra treat with the addition of vanilla bean glaze, but this is totally optional for anyone who is sugar-conscious.
Ingredients:
- PB2 Madagascar Vanilla (or your favorite flavor)
- Plain nonfat yogurt – you can use Greek
- 1 egg white
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar- you can use Yakon, Sukrin Gold, or any brown sugar substitute granulated blend.
- pinch of salt
- Oats– the oats are a binder to prevent the cookies from being too watery. They work really well and give a nice, subtle flavor and bouncy texture.
Making them:
Easy to bake:
These cookies are really easy to make and will take less than 30 minutes from start to finish.
Flavor & Texture:
They have a peanut butter protein bar flavor if I had to peg a taste to them. If you enjoy protein bars, or balls you will love these. However, if you are looking for a conventional peanut butter cookie, these are not for you.
The vanilla flavor is subtle when baked into these cookies, but it more apparent in liquid beverages.
As for sweetness, these are not overly sweet, but can be made sweeter with the optional vanilla bean icing.
Protein:
Each cookie has 4 grams of protein. Between the yogurt, egg white, and PB2, there is no shortage of protein per cookie!

Hello Brenda,
You are right, it is one tablespoon of dough. However, these cookies are teeny! - Brenda says
I’m curious about the cookie size. 1 teaspoon of dough would make a minuscule cookie and pictures do not seem to show a cookie that small. Are they possibly 1 tablespoon in size?
These look amazing! I’m all about a healthier cookie! Sign me up! ????- Lyanna Soria says
