Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup protein powder
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup honey
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup M&M's
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the peanut butter, honey, and softened butter until smooth.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine rolled oats, protein powder, baking soda, chia seeds, and flaxseed meal.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring well until a cohesive dough forms.
Fold in the chocolate chips and M&M's, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each ball slightly with your hand to help them spread evenly while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
