Coffee. Let us say that again...COFFEE. Coffee has become an obsession for people. It's not just because the caffeine fix coffee gives you, but the creativity you can have as an amateur barista! Okay, may it is just the taste that we've become obsessed with. Coffee is so mainstream we decided to put it into a protein packed cookie. Our Caramel Macchiato Espresso Chip Protein Cookies features RedCon1's popular MRE Lite Powder in Caramel Macchiato flavor.
Caramel Macchiato in itself is delicious. It gives you that bold flavor of coffee with the subtle hint of caramel we all love and adore. The addition of the espresso morsels is what puts this cookie over-the-top for coffee lovers. From the first bite to the aftertaste, you will get all coffee (and good protein!)
RedCon1 MRE Lite is so versatile to bake with it only made sense to use it here in this recipe. They also have so many flavors to choose from, which means we get to have some fun here at the FIt Kitchen.
The fact that these cookies have very few calories comes from the use of zero calorie sweeteners. We use a sugar-free syrup and Truvia, both sweeteners that have minimal to zero calories. This allows us to still get the sweetness we need in a cookie, but not have to absorb all those unnecessary carbs and sugars. In fact, this may be one of the most macro-friendly cookies you ever eat with only 54 calories per cookie!
Are you ready to become a FIt Baker like us? Welcome to the FI BULKery! Expect to see many more recipes from RedCon1 and the MRE line. For now, enjoy our Caramel Macchiato Espresso Chip Protein Cookies with a side of espresso. Let's GOOOO!
