1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line a rectangle cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Make your flax egg by whisking together  ground flaxseed with water in a small bowl. Set aside and allow the flaxseed to thicken for 5 minutes.  In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed bananas, vanilla extract, peanut butter and your flax egg. Stir well.
3. To the same bowl, add vegan protein powder, almond flour and baking soda. Mix until fully combined. Add in chocolate chips and mix again.
4. Roll dough into 10 balls (using about 2 tablespoons of dough in each one) and place on your prepared cookie sheet. Bake for about 9-12 minutes.
5. Once baked, gently press down on each cookie dough ball using the palm of your hand until the cookies are about ½  inch thick. Allow to cool and sprinkle with flakey sea salt if desired.
