Ingredients for this No Bake Protein Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

These no bake oatmeal protein cookies are make with simple and healthy ingredients like protein powder, peanut butter powder and sugar free chocolate chips too. 

• Rolled Oats
• Vanilla Protein Powder to make this high protein garbanzo bean cookie.
  I used whey-casein Vanilla protein powder from Quest Nutrition, 
• Unflavored Protein Powder for even more protein. I recommend the Multi-purpose mix protein powder from Quest Nutrition.
• Peanut Butter Powder , also known as Powdered Peanut Butter. I recommend Lakanto for a sugar free version (the code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount). Or you could use the one from PbFit too.
• Unsweetened Applesauce
• Some Creamy Almond Butter; I recommend Magic Bar Almond Butter from American Dream Nut Butter. It's got an oatmeal cookie flavor and even some mini chocolate chips, granola clusters, shredded coconut, mini peanut butter chips.
  Code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount on the nut butter.
• Chocolate Chips - I use sugar free ones from Lakanto here too (same discount again). Lily's is another sugar-free option!

If your protein powder is not sweet enough, you might need some more maple syrup, or use stevia sweetener instead.

Tips for the perfect No Bake Oat Cookies with Protein Powder

These no bake protein powder oatmeal cookies are really easy to make, but here's some tips to get them perfect!

• Use whey-caesin protein powder since it works well with the ratio of ingredients here; Whey absorbs less moisture, so you would have to reduce the amount of applesauce in this case.

• Taste the mixture and see if you need some extra sweetener. I'd recommend using stevia powder to maintain the consistency of the dough and have sugar free no bake protein oatmeal cookies.

These no bake protein oat cookies needs to be stored in the fridge or freezer. Place cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the fridge and up to 3 months in the freezer.

To freeze, stack healthy no bake oat cookies with parchment paper in between, and place in airtight containers or freezer-safe zipper bags.
