Not sure where I came across this peanut butter marshmallow cookie concept, but I totally had to make a high protein version of it.
Oh man what a beauty! This cookie was proper dense and chewy and peanut buttery and marshmallow and all of it!
But of course also healthy and gluten free with protein powder and oat flour and applesauce and Greek yogurt, no sugar or butter!
Ingredients for Fluffernutter Protein Cookie Recipe
This healthy fluffernutter protein cookie recipe with marshmallows has just a few simple ingredients, no butter or oil and no sugar either! A great gluten free protein cookie recipe too.
- Oat Flour – You can make your own by blending rolled oats in a high speed blender
- Vanilla Protein Powder for healthy, whey protein protein cookie that’s also sugar free
I used Quest Nutrition Vanilla Protein Powder. - Unflavored Protein Powder to replace some of the flour (and carbs) in the recipe for a slightly low calorie protein cookie. Quest Nutrition whey-caesin again here.
- Peanut Butter Powder, also known as Powdered Peanut Butter. I recommend Lakanto for a sugar free version (the code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount). Or you could use the one from PbFit or PB2 too.
- Unsweetened Applesauce for a soft sugar cookie without butter
- Non-fat Greek Yogurt contributes to the oil-free part of these protein cookies since it adds the moisture, and also extra protein
- Almond Milk to give the soft cookie a slightly cakey feel, and keep it dairy free.
- Baking Powder
For the marshmallow cookie filling:
- Mini Marhmallows
And optionally,
- Peanut Butter Chips or Butterscotch Chips
Store Peanut Butter Marshmallow Protein Cookie
This peanut butter marshmallow protein cookie recipe is a giant single serve and is best had fresh, but you can store it too.
If you want to store it, keep the gluten free fluffernutter cookie in an airtight container and keep on the countertop for up to 2 days, or fridge 5 days.
To freeze healthy peanut butter marhmallow fluff cookie, place in freezer-safe zipper bag and keep 1-2 months; Don’t forget to thaw before eating!
Alternates for this Single Serve Healthy Fluffernutter Cookie Recipe with Protein Powder
I recommend making this healthy fluffernutter cookie using the protein powder and other ingredients and products listed – since it gives the best results.
If you need other options for the flours and such, here’s some alternatives:
- Oat flour: Use Whole wheat pastry flour or even all purpose flour. A 1:1 Gluten-free all purpose baking flour would work too. Go by the weight for these substitutions.
You can try to use almond flour; I’m a little hesitant about this one, so let me know if you try it. - Unflavored Protein Powder: More flour (also 1 Tbsp)
- Unsweetened Applesauce: Pumpkin Puree or Mashed Banana
- Peanut Butter Powder: 1 Tbsp Peanut Butter, and also use ½ Tbsp Milk instead
- Almond Milk: Regular milk
- Greek Yogurt: Coconut Yogurt
A Vegan Fluffernutter Cookie Recipe with Marshmallows
This single serve peanut butter lava cookie recipe has no eggs and uses almond milk, so can easily be made Vegan too.
For the perfect eggless Vegan peanut butter marshmallow cookie, make sure you use a plant based protein powder, coconut yogurt and vegan marshmallows. There’s some brands that sell these on Amazon.
ProteinWorld has a Vegan protein blend what might work well (HAYLSKITCHEN for the discount here too).

Didn’t really turn out well for me, but still decent
Oh i’m so sorry. Could it be that you used a whey or plant-based protein powder instead of whey-casein? That might be it!
