Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cup Whey protein powder
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, protein powder, flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand mixer until creamy and well combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture and continue to beat until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
