Ingredients

• 1 cup dry oats (can also use oat flour and skip step #2)
• 1 cup blanched almond flour
• 56 g vanilla protein powder (your favorite kind!)
• 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup honey
• Zest from 1 lemon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup fresh blueberries

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
Place the oats in a food processor and process until mostly ground.
Add in the almond flour, protein powder, honey, yogurt, lemon zest, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Process just until the ingredients are evenly mixed into a batter.
Add in the blueberries, and pulse just for 10 seconds.
Spoon the batter onto the baking sheet, forming 18 cookies that are evenly spaced apart.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the bottoms of the cookies are lightly browned.
Allow the cookies to slightly cool before using a spatula to transfer them to a cooling rack.
Store in the refrigerator in a closed container or covered plate.
