Hi, friends! Happy COOKIE FRIDAY!
I’m popping in real quick because I just HAD to share this super easy recipe that I whipped up last weekend. I can’t help but give in to my urge to bake during the holiday season, and I love simple cookie recipes. Well, I love ALL types of cookie recipes, but it’s nice to have all of the ingredients on hand when you want to bake up a fresh batch of cookies. Am I right? 🙂
As you guys know, I love incorporating collagen into my diet as a quick and easy source of protein. Additionally, this recipe takes into account a variety of common allergens, so just about everyone can enjoy this special holiday treat. (Be sure to add some holiday sprinkles to the batter!) These cookies are gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and, most importantly, insanely delicious! Please add these to your holiday baking list and let me know what you think. Enjoy!

This recipe is just so…hard to relate to. How many of your readers do you think will be interested in a recipe that involves collagen peptides, GF flour…
A lot, actually. I have quite a few readers with food sensitivities and/or macro goals. Sorry it’s not a recipe you can relate to. Hopefully, you like some of my other ones! 🙂
@JS: I’m not GF or vegan but these cookies sound amazing to me! I’ll be trying these for sure!
Tina, do you think this would be good with the Vanilla Bean collagen you recommended? I bought it and just can’t handle it in my coffee but I don’t want to waste it. I’m looking for other ways to use it. Thanks!!
For sure! 🙂
These look delicious! And I’m trying to incorporate collagen where I can, so that’s a nice bonus. Do you think regular flour would work just as well?
Yep, I think it would work!
Can’t wait to try these! Do you think brown rice flour would be okay to use as the GF flour?
