It’s time to beat those unhealthy chocolate cravings with some Protein Triple Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies! This healthy cookie recipe is packed with chocolate flavor, high in fiber, and absolutely delicious. Did I mention that you probably already have all the ingredients!?
For this recipe you’ll need either a mixing bowl or food processor to mix everything together and a baking sheet. If you don’t have a food processor, here’s a link to the one I’ve been using for years.
Start by making some homemade oat flour. To do this simple process or blend 2 cups of rolled oats until they look like flour! Easy, right?
Add into whatever you’re using your oat flour, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 2 large whole eggs, 3/4 cup of your choice sweetener, 2 tablespoons of sugar free chocolate syrup, 10 tablespoons of cocoa powder, 1 cup of unsweetened apple sauce, 3 ounces of plain Greek yogurt, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 4 scoops of a chocolate protein powder, and 1/2 ripe avocado.
Did you know that cocoa powder is a great cheap source of fiber with 2 grams for every 10 calories?
Mix or process everything together until your protein triple chocolate oatmeal cookies mix is smooth.
After it’s smooth you’re going to want to lightly mix in 1 1/2 cups of rolled oats.
Take out your baking sheet, coat it with some non-stick cooking spray, and spoon your mix onto your baking sheet. However big you want to make your protein triple chocolate oatmeal cookies is completely up to you. I made 15 cookies today.
Cookie Toppings
Before the oven you can optionally top them with whatever you want. Raisins, nuts, chocolate or peanut butter chips, and banana slices are some of my favorite toppings for these! Let us know what you end up going with in the comments below.
