- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3 tbsp vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter unsalted, unsweetened
- 1 medium banana mashed
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Combine rolled oats with protein powder in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together peanut butter, mashed banana, and maple syrup.
Pour wet mixture over dry mixture. Stir together, and then knead the dough. If it’s too crumbly, top up with a little more mashed banana to introduce moisture.
Once the dough is ready, make 12 balls.
Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Press down the balls with either a spoon or a fork to flatten them out and form cookies.
Bake for 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool down before serving.
