Pecan Pie Cookie Dough
This pecan pie cookie dough is the perfect high-protein snack to keep on hand! It is a spin-off of the viral cottage cheese cookie dough, without the dairy and with a pecan pie twist! In place of cottage cheese, we're using extra firm tofu and coconut yogurt, which gives the same mouth feel and protein content as cottage cheese. It is loaded with a sweet and nutty flavour and is so good you won't believe it's made with nourishing and plant-based ingredients!
