Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Vanilla protein powder (plant-based)
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 cup Almond butter
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (gluten-free)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the gluten-free rolled oats, almond flour, vanilla protein powder, ground flaxseed, baking soda, and sea salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond butter, honey, vanilla extract, and unsweetened almond milk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula until fully combined.
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of your spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
