Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter
Banana Grape Nuts Cookies!
I did it! I finally came up with a homemade snack that I could make in a batch and grab on the go, that had some sweetness, was high in protein and fiber, but didn't add too many calories!
I sat down with a ton of cookie recipes and my nutrition tracker and got to work to create this one! This was the first time I've ever tried baking with protein powder and I found that the Orgain vanilla protein powder added a really nice sweetness, and was actually a great substitute for sugar! PB2 added peanut butter, which makes everything taste better. Bob's Red Mill protein oats added a little extra protein. Grape Nuts added great body and texture. ...and Ghirardelli dark chocolate has my whole heart.
