Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond butter
- 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the almond butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Fold in the chocolate chips and the optional chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten the dough slightly with the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown at the edges.
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 these cookies as a delicious, sugar-free treat that's packed with protein!
