Protein Scones
Get creative with these and add whatever you like – unsweetened cocoa powder, coconut shavings, dried cranberries, walnuts, etc. I added 1/4 cup of raisins and a 1/2 Tablespoon of cinnamon, but any add-ins that you like will work. Dried fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, whatever. Add something though, or these will be really boring.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Ingredients:
- 1 cup plus 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder, or chocolate, or whatever. I used Vanilla Metabolic Drive
- 1/4 cup oats
- 1 Tbsp of Stevia
- 4 egg whites
- 2 Tablespoons 0% fat Greek Yogurt, or pumpkin puree Your choice. I used pumpkin. Unsweetened applesauce will also work.
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1/2 Tablespoon cinnamon
Mix all of the dry ingredients together first. Then, add the wet ingredients.
Drop 9 spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet sprayed with non-stick spray or smeared with coconut oil, and slightly spread them out just a bit.
Bake until the peaks barely start to turn golden, about 12 minutes.
They should still be slightly soft when you take them out.
WARNING: Watch these closely and don’t overbake them, otherwise you will have rock-hard protein doggy biscuits for Fido.
Makes 9 scones.
The following macros are for the basic mix, not including the raisins.
Remember, any add-ins will change these numbers:

Cookie Dough Balls
I got this recipe from Angela Liddon. These are pretty calorically dense, however they are made with whole unprocessed foods, which makes them a great treat once in awhile. These are delicious and taste just like cookie dough. They are so easy to make – your kids will love these, too!
Ingredients
- 1 TBSP melted coconut oil
- 1 TBSP honey
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/4 cup peanut butter (or any nut butter will work)
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Tiny little splash of cold water if it needs more liquid.
Squish everything together and mold into 10 small balls.
Nutritional Facts per ball:
- Protein: 4.7 grams
- Carb: 9.9 grams
- Fat: 4.7 grams
- Calories: 117
You can get creative and add dried fruit, shredded coconut, nuts, or whatever you want to these.

Thanks for posting so many delicious recipes Jen!
I am a dessert addict and these healthier recipes keep me on track. The protein brownies are my favorite but will definitely give these two recipes a try. Keep them coming!
Cookie dough was an awesome recipe. I didn’t have chocolate chips so I used 1/4 cup of nutella instead. Froze them for half an hour and they came out delicious! Great job!
Both recipes sound amazing, thank you.
I’ve got two questions about the scone recipe:
1) Would it work well with whole eggs instead of just whites, and if so how many should I use?
2) I’m guessing Splenda can be used instead of stevia?
man I’m working with shelby right now but when that’s over I am ALL over these recipes
Tell him to give you a cheat meal already!
I didn’t have chocolate whey but I really wanted to try the cookie dough balls. Used vanilla and they came out great!
Just made the cookie dough balls…they’re great! Used MM Choco Mint since I didn’t have Chocolate, and mixed Almond and crunchy peanut butter…also used apple-cinnamon oats.
So I guess it’s not YOUR recipe, per se, but I still really liked it. Can’t wait to chow down on more tomorrow after the workout!
