Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the oat flour, whey protein powder, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the honey, egg, vanilla extract, and salt to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Lightly flour a working surface and roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Using a round cookie cutter (about 2 inches in diameter), cut out circles from the dough. Use a smaller round cutter (about 1 inch) to cut out the centers from half of the circles. These will be the top cookies.
Transfer the round bases (without holes) to the prepared baking sheet and spoon about 1 teaspoon of raspberry chia seed jam into the center of each base.
Place the top cookies (with holes) gently over the jam-filled bases, pressing lightly to seal the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies begin to turn golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, lightly dust the tops with protein powder-based powdered sugar alternative before serving.
