Collagen Almond Oatmeal Cookies

The cookies are a delicious treat that combines the wholesome goodness of oats, almonds, and the added benefits of collagen.

To create these delightful cookies, blend together 1/3 cup of unflavored collagen protein, adding a boost of protein and wellness to your treat. Incorporate 1/2 cup of oats (choose gluten-free if needed) and 1/4 cup of coconut flour for a satisfying texture. Enhance the sweetness with 1/4 cup of monk fruit sweetener, and add a sprinkle of salt to balance the flavors.

For a nutty twist, mix in 1/4 cup of almond butter, but peanut butter can work just as well. Add a teaspoon of almond extract for that delightful almond flavor, and use 1/4 cup of almond milk to bring the ingredients together into a cookie dough.

For an extra layer of texture and flavor, consider adding some crunchy elements like 1 tablespoon of pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and sliced almonds. These optional add-ins provide a delightful crunch and extra nutrition.

Bake up these Collagen Almond Oatmeal Cookies, and you'll have a nutritious treat that's perfect for a quick snack or a guilt-free dessert. Enjoy the delicious blend of almond and oatmeal flavors, all while reaping the benefits of collagen protein!

INGREDIENTS

• Dry

  • 1/3 c unflavored collagen protein

  • 1/2 c oats (GF if needed)

  • 1/4 c coconut flour

  • 1/4 c monk fruit sweetener

  • sprinkle salt

• Wet

  • 1/4 c almond butter (pb works too)

  • 1 tsp almond extract

  • 1/4 c almond milk

• Optional add-ins but recommend something for a crunch

  • 1 T pumpkin seeds

  • 1 T chia

  • 1 T sliced almonds
    

    STEPS

1. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add wet ingredients and stir.

2. Add the optional crunchy nuts of choice. The dough will be sticky but it’s worth it for the chewy cookie factor. You can put avocado oil on your fingers so it doesn't stick or just lick your fingers because it’s edible dough.

3. Form into 1” cookies and press to make a cookie shape. They don’t spread at all while baking, so flatten them.

4. Bake at 350° for 12 min or so. Let sit for 20 min to cool and set. Sprinkled mine with coarse sea salt and cinnamon but that’s up to you! Made 14 cookies. Store in the fridge for up to a week.

   Notes: Another flavor change-up if almond isn’t your jam is to swap for vanilla extract, peanut butter, and chopped peanuts for crunch, maybe even chocolate chips. Lotsa yummy options.
