Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender cookie.
Fold in the rolled oats and chopped nuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly press each ball of dough to flatten slightly for even baking.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious high-protein classic crumble cookies with a cold glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
