Adapted from Double Chocolate High-Protein Breakfast Cookies
Ingredients
2 c. uncooked quick oats (NOT instant)
2-4 scoops unflavored whey protein powder, enough to add 40g protein
1/4 c. almond flour
4 T. unsweetened dark cocoa powder
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. instant espresso powder
1/16 t. cayenne
1/4 t. salt
1 egg
3 oz. melted dark chocolate
1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1/4 t. stevia powder
2 T. wild honey
1/2 t. vanilla extract
few drops orange extract
2 oz. finely chopped dark chocolate
Directions
Set oven to 350˚F.
Sift and mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Mix wet ingredients together in a separate bowl.
Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Toss in any dried fruit or dark chocolate and mix together.
Evenly divide the batter using a spoon or ice cream scoop onto a baking sheet lined with parchment or Silpat, then gently mash down on each circle since the cookies will not rise too much in the oven.
Bake for 8 minutes, then allow them to cool on a towel or a cooling rack. They will harden and become chewy as they cool.
Makes 40 cookies using a 1 T. disher.
Notes: Version 4
The best yet! Didn't mash them and they're nice and moist but still chewy. Can't taste the stevia. Might try to add a little more. Increase the protein powder a bit next time; may swap it out for the almond flour entirely as that doesn't add much protein.
