When creating your Morning Boost Protein Cookies, the way you combine your ingredients is crucial for achieving the right texture. Start by ensuring that your dry ingredients—such as flour, protein powder, baking soda, and salt—are well-mixed in a separate bowl. This prevents clumping and ensures even distribution.

Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond flour

1/2 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)

2 ripe bananas (mashed)

1/2 cup nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or dried fruit (optional)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp cinnamon

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly with cooking spray.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to ensure that everything is evenly distributed.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the mashed bananas, nut butter, honey or maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. If desired, add in the dark chocolate chips or dried fruit at this stage to add some extra flavor and texture.

          Shape Cookies: Using a tablespoon or ice cream scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of the spoon or your hand for even baking.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.

              Cool and Store: Once out of the oven, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
