Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons plain non-fat greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt

Directions
 

  1. Mix all of your ingredients into a large bowl (except for the chocolate chips). It might be a bit thick, so feel free to add a small amount of water/milk or just do your best to stir the mixture.
  2. Spray your air fryer tray with non-stick cooking spray
  3. Spray your hands with non-stick cooking spray and then do your best to form a rounded ball of dough.
  4. Place it on the air fryer tray and use a fork to gently press down in an x fashion.
  5. Bake on 310F for 8-10 minutes
  6. Let them cool for about 5-10 minutes in the air fryer basket so they can firm up. They will be too gooey if you don’t let them finish cooling.
