We want to wish everybody a Healthy and Happy Holiday season!

We are celebrating the holidays with a completely Vegan No Bake Gingerbread Cookie made with our Complete Pea Protein!

Ingredients:

2 scoops (about a 1/2 cup) of Complete Pea Protein in the Delicious Chocolate Flavor

1 cup of pitted Medjool dates (about 10 dates)

3 Tbsp. of freshly grated ginger root - Substitute dry ground ginger if you do not have the fresh root.

2 Tbsp. of Blackstrap Molasses

2 Tbsp. of Maple Syrup

1 cup of Almond Meal (We used Bob's Red Mill brand)

1 cup of Almond Butter (We used Trader Joe's brand)

2 Tbsp. of Ceylon Cinnamon

1/2 tsp. of Himalayan Sea Salt

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/4 tsp. of nutmeg

1/4 tsp. of allspice

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients in your blender or food processor until it forms a dough. Roll out flat onto a cutting board and then use a Gingerbread cookie cutter shape to make the cookies. We used the end of a spoon to make eyes and button indentions.  If your prefer a more simple cookie, you can always roll into balls. 

Chill in the fridge once all the cookies are cut.

Pea protein may have a positive effect on the maintenance of normal blood pressure levels and has also been shown, in animal studies, to have a positive impact on total cholesterol levels. 

Complete Pea Protein is a great plant-based vegetarian protein source for athletes and anyone who is physically active.

Complete Pea Protein is easy to digest, a distinct advantage over other vegetable protein isolates, as it does not contain the commonly occurring "anti-nutrients" of soy or other legumes. The presence of high levels of these anti-nutrients found in other plant based proteins can cause substantial reductions in nutrient absorption and protein digestion. 

Complete Pea Protein is a 100% VEGAN protein source made from North American grown yellow peas. Complete Pea Protein is a natural, non-GMO, pea protein which offers a high quality vegetable based protein with excellent digestibility. 

This protein is ideal for those who are looking for a high quality vegetarian/vegan protein powder or for those interested in a dairy-free alternative to whey protein.

Complete Pea Protein has an amino acid profile that is similar to that of whey protein. Its well-balanced profile fulfills the essential amino acid requirements often missing in the lower protein, vegetarian diet.
