So this week I've realised I need to keep myself out of trouble on the weekends as boredom really does make me hungry! So I've done some research into baking with protein powders and developed these little beauty's with my husband to be!
Chocolate, oat & raisin protein cookies ( I need to come up with a catchier name really...)
To make a dozen you will need:
- preheat your oven to 160 degrees C
- Measuring cups (I have some super cute nesting doll ones)
- baking tray & grease proof paper
- 6 egg whites
- 1 & 3/4 cups of oats
- 2 tsp of stevia or Splenda
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 a cup of apple sauce, ( I used Bramley apple as I like the chunks)
- 4 scoops of chocolate whey protein, (I used bulk powders chocolate whey protein concentrate 82% instantised but you can use any in theory!)
- 1 tsp of virgin olive oil
- 1/2 a cup of raisins or sultanas
You literally mix the lot together, portion onto your grease proof paper & bake for 20 minutes!
The nutritional value is as follows per cookie:
122 kcals
12.8g carbs
10.9g protein
Compare this to your average chocolate cookie from a bakery....
226 kcals
29g carbs
2.8g protein
I know what I'd prefer!!!
LOVELY!
