Brenda”s Notes:
1.This recipe was first published in September of 2016 and updated with video in September 2018.
2.If you don’t have protein powder or choose not to use it, try fine almond flour instead. Add some vanilla extract to the mixture if not using vanilla protein powder.
3. Sukrin is a brown sugar sub I like to use. You could use your favorite granulated sweetener or even liquid sweetener of choice to replace.
4. I do recommend flavored cinnamon stevia here to really add the flavor of traditional snickerdoodles, but if you don’t have it, use vanilla stevia and add 1/4 tsp of ground cinnamon.
