As an anabolic cook/baker I can think of plenty of things for the egg whites I'm loving the fact I finally have something to use the egg yoke for!! Thank you so much for this I have your protein pancakes almost every day and this will make a fine addition to my collection
Made this last night with some tweaks - I used whole rolled oats instead of oat flour, 100 g nonfat greek yogurt + 1 tbsp milk instead of the apple sauce (adds more protein), and baked it at 350 F for 15 min. It came out great!
Usually, when I watch these "low calorie, high protein" dessert recipes, they almost always require protein powder, which I hate buying. So, I'm glad to see something I can do that doesn't require protein powder. I'm definitely going to try this.
@@YouSurfinyou could very easily lower the calories with a few changes. Sugar Free maple syrup and chocolate chips for example. Mine is 810 for the whole thing. And even then, 900 calories for an ENTIRE cookie skillet is fuckin amazing.
Well damn! Now I need to get a dog to take care of the extra ingredients I don’t need any more lol. Josh, love your commentary. And since I am a chocoholic I’m definitely going to use this one
I made the brownie version today and it was great. I know he mentioned there not as good as a normal cookie/brownie skillet but I wasn’t missing the real thing at all. Taste wise for the brownie version it wasn’t super sweet which if you want that then you’re probably not gonna like it as much but what it does have is a really nice chocolate flavor. So if that’s what you like I would very highly recommend the brownie version.
Thanks for these, the part about not wanting to buy casein is real. I don't mind having some it's just the cost has gone up. I ended up buying 2 massive bags of optimum nutrition protein at Costco just to have it in the event it goes up again. Shits turning into an investment at this point. Can't wait to try this!!!
Looks great. I imagine sugar free maple syrup and Lili's chocolate chips would pull calorie count down even more. Whether or not that's worth doing-- will need to cook ad eat a few batches to say for sure. Thanks!
I did the same thing and pulled the calories down to 760 for the whole thing. I'm also diabetic and this recipe is a game changer. I love the cakey version.
has anyone tried the wheat flour version of it? I tried it w/ the chewy version and it ended up too soft and never seemed to really cook despite leaving it in for way longer 😢 I don't think I messed it up though I used 90g instead of 95 for flour cause of volume Edit: Wait I used pancake syrup. Now that I think about it that def has way too much water compared to maple syrup I bet.
man im traveling atm babysiting a friends apartment and boy oh boy am i craving something like this xD, had to boil eggs in a pan yesterday. Funky stuff
The cookie skillets look awesome! Don't know if I can just have a quarter tho 😅 You crack me up! Feed it to the dog ... I'd save the egg white for your baked oatmeal recipe :)
The only earning I got about using different starches is that in certain recipes, you will taste the difference. I suppose this will be especially important if what you use it in is mildly flavored.
I just made the chewey version but topped it with 1 tablespoon of mini chocolate chips instead of regular and it was fuckin great. Gonna make this all the time to curb my cookie craving. I used sugar free maple syrup and saved up a few calories. About 203 grams for 1/4 so I'll happily have two slices for 406 calories. Edit: so the next day I made the cakey version. And HOLYSHIT. it's fuckin amazing. I accidentally added 4g of baking soda rather than 2 so idk if it made a difference but it's so fuckin good. I added mini chocolate chips so the chocolate distribution was far wider. I love this. I will never go back to cake or cookies. I will try the brownie version and give my review later. 2nd EDIT: I've made the brownie cake version multiple times now and i love it. I dont know which one i prefer between the brownie or cakey one but they're both amazing. The brownie one has less calories but has less protein while the cakey one has more more protein but more calories. If you swap the syrup for a sugar free one and maybe the same for the chocolate chips you can save a lot more calories. Also just use mini chocolate chips for the whole thing so you have more chocolate spread throughout. I fuckin love this thing. The cookie chewey one i might try again but tbh the cakey/brownie one is awesome enough.
Honestly, I don't need this to be "as good" as a typical cookie skillet. I just want something that tastes good, has a pleasant texture, and satisfies my sweet tooth without consuming the same amount of sugar that I would get in a pint of ice cream. I'm trying to reduce my sugar addiction, not feed it.
@@paul5928 I ended up having to change a few more variables because of what I had in my pantry so I don't know if I could speak to it. If I try it again, I'll stick exactly to the recipe but with casein and see.
It's interesting you always answer ahead of time stupid questions & comments. Are there so many? (Like. What to do with the egg white - wtf? Whatever, huh?) Also, you say 236 kcal each for 4 servings, but the small "cube" you show looks a 9-ish serving size. So I guess the one you hold in your hand is a 105kcal-ish one, right? Also, can these survive freezing (and go to 'Snack City')? Thanks!
really good recipe. i recently "invested" in a giant tub of vanilla casein protein powder, so how *would* you change these cookie sheet recipes to incorporate that? your website is awesome, but i can't sort/filter recipes by ingredients used/excluded.
If you're in the UK alternatives are really hard to find. I know there are some soy/sunflower based "nut free" peanut butters. I get mine at Holland and Barrett I only really use them for baking.
Tried this recipe, but for some reason 162 C and 12 min wasn't enough, maybe my oven skillet was to small and the mixture wasn't spread out to make it thin a layer, any suggestions?
@@TheMealPrepManual Im stupid, thank you for your answer, i baked it in the meantime, but didnt taste it yet. I had an idea with the egg white, thought about beating it to egg snow to mix it under the liquid, but i got some egg york in it, maybe next time. In general thank you for your reciepes, its fun to copy it.
This won't taste like much if at all like apples. It's there for texture, the other flavors in this should MORE than overpower any apple taste. After all it wouldn't taste much like cookies if you could taste the apple.
I just tried the chewy version with chickpea flour instead of oat flour. Maybe it's the natural flavor of the chickpea flour, but this tastes really "healthy," if you know what I mean. I feel like the applesauce and maple syrup isn't quite enough sweetness. And personally, I don't much like the "chewy" version texture. But still, very intriguing recipe. And it comes at a perfect time, as I have just started a diet. I will definitely try this again. Hopefully my experimental notes are useful to someone.
well I just tried - the top got browned which is not entirely perfect for a cookie but it was alright. You kind of can air fry anything you would put in the oven as the only difference is a fan that's always blowing full force so stuff kind of gets blasted with heat.
Calories add flavor. So, if we want to lose weight or not get fat, we have to give up some pleasure from the flavor calories add. It is not rocket science!
