Ingredients

• 1/4 cup butter, room temperature
• 1/4 cup truvia
• 1/4 cup brown sugar truvia

• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1 scoop PEScience Multi-purpose Protein

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the butter and truvia sweeteners into a bowl of a stand alone mixer. Using a paddle attachment, beat until creamy. Add in the egg, vanilla and molasses and mix until combined.
