Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cup Whey protein powder
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 unit Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, protein powder, flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand mixer until creamy and well combined.
Step 4
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the peanut butter mixture and continue to beat until smooth.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
Step 7
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
