Pumpkin is everywhere right now and I love eating it everyday for now. It’s also very good for you too! I used VitaFiber for extra fiber in these cookies but you can always use maple syrup or honey if you don’t have any. I made 12 big cookies. Recipe below.
Recipe:
Chocolate Oatmeal Pumpkin Protein Cookies
Dry:
•1 Cup oat flour
•1 Cup whole oats
•1/2 Cup chocolate protein powder (I use Kaizen Naturals)
•1/4 Cup Cacao powder
•1 tsp cinnamon
•Pinch nutmeg
•1 tsp baking powder
•1/4 Cup mini chocolate chips
Wet:
•1/4 Cup VitaFiber (or maple syrup/honey)
•1 tsp pure vanilla extract
•1 Egg or flax/chia egg
•1 Cup pure pumpkin puree
•1/4 Cup unsweetened applesauce
➡Preheat oven to 300ºF, line cookie sheet with parchment and set aside. Combine all dry ingredients together in large bowl. In separate bowl whisk all wet ingredients together then add to dry ingredients and mix until combined. Using ice cream scoop, scoop batter onto parchment lined sheet and press down with fork, add extra chocolate chips to top if desired. Bake for approximately 15 minutes. I made 12 cookies, if you like make them smaller.
