There’s no secret that I love PB2 and so for that reason, it was just natural for me to do a whole bunch of recipes in fact I made 7 most mouth-watering pb2 cookies for you to try.

you see….

I have always been a fan of peanut butter since I was really little and If you’re here reading this, then I know you have been too. The addiction is real and so is the love affair with peanut butter. But there comes a time in one’s life when too much peanut butter starts to equal pain because…you know why…the calories. Yes, those tiny little creatures that live in your closet and sew your clothes a bit tighter every night, those ones.

Anyway, for that reason, a swap to pb2 was very natural for me because it simply meant that I could eat more pb2 for the same calories. Yes, that’s how my brain worked. I could see how much more “peanut butter” I was able to consume versus the tiny little amounts that no real peanut butter fan could stick to.

So as my love affair with powdered peanut butter became stronger as I began experimenting and making delicious pb2 recipes with it, which is also how I stumbled across these 7 pb2 cookie recipes.

So now, I can have more than one cookie and not feel bad because these pb2 cookies I’m sharing with you a high in fiber and protein, which are important building blocks for keeping a healthy weight.

  4. Stevia can be subbed for coconut sugar, rice malt syrup or honey
  5. flax eggs can be subbed for chia eggs or whole eggs
  6. Buckwheat flour can be subbed for spelt flour
