After a lot of time researching between beets and food coloring – coz I really wanted red velvet something – I went for a red velvet coloring. That color was needed!
I actually planned to make a red velvet lava cake, but forgot to preheat the oven for that, so I decided to go for a no bake raw red velvet dessert here.
A super quick satisfaction of the red velvet cake and the cookie in this edible red velvet cookie dough, but healthy and sugar free and high protein too!
Ingredients for Single Serve Red Velvet Protein Cookie Dough
A few simple and healthy ingredients here for this high protein raw red velvet cookie dough recipe.
- Oat Flour – You can make your own by blending rolled oats in a high speed blender
- Chocolate Protein Powder for high protein cookie dough, and also replace some of the sweetener.
I used ProteinWorld Whey; The ProteinWorld Slender Blend another great option. Code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount on both.
A third alternative would be Quest. - A bit of Coconut Flour
- 1:1 Zero Calorie Sugar Substitute – I use Lakanto, to keep this recipe sugar free; (code HAYLSKITCHEN for a discount here too)
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Cacao Powder
- A bit of Cashew Butter
- Unsweetened Almond Milk or another non dairy or regular milk
- Red Food Coloring for that red velvet effect
- Chocolate Chips – I use sugar free white chocolate chips from ChocZero here for the contrast. But another sugar free regular option is Lakanto (same discount here too) or Lily’s!
If your protein powder is not sweet enough, you might need some more ‘sugar’, or use stevia sweetener instead.
Vegan and Dairy Free Red Velvet Cake Batter
Use a plant based protein powder to get a Vegan protein cookie dough with the red velvet cake flavor; The recipe is already dairy free since it uses almond milk and no actual milk.
Gluten Free
Since it’s made with Oat flour and Coconut Flour, this red velvet raw cookie dough is already gluten free too!
