Very easy to make. Lightly sweet, these cookies are high in protein and fiber, and tasty without any refined sugar, so you get a boost of energy to get you through the morning. My teenagers grab these for breakfast when they are rushing out the door. Makes a filling snack as well. You can substitute your favorite dried fruit and nuts in place of the raisins and walnuts. I have also added 1/2 cup chocolate chips on occasion.
Ingredients:
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients, except the dried fruit and the nuts.
3. In another bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients.
4. Stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture, then stir in the dried fruit and nuts.
5. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper, then drop dough by spoonfuls onto it.
6. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until lightly browned on the bottom. Remove to rack to cool.
