Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup natural peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of natural peanut butter, 1/2 cup of honey, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir until well mixed.
Add 1 cup of rolled oats and 1/4 cup of protein powder to the mixture. Stir until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of the spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
