XL Pumpkin Protein Cookie for 1

For when that fall craving hits! And bonus, it’s an easy make-ahead meal prep on the go too with a microwave or prep and cook several ahead of time. I usually add some cottage cheese or vanilla Greek yogurt with it and make it a meal with 40g of protein. Lotsa options. What a fun fall-mouth party way to hit those protein goals.

Enjoy a giant cookie all to yourself with this XL Pumpkin Protein Cookie! Made with a blend of oats (or coconut flour), protein powder, and a hint of pumpkin pie spice, this cookie is packed with cozy fall flavors. Almond or peanut butter adds a rich, nutty taste, while pumpkin purée keeps it moist and tender. Top it off with dark chocolate chips for an indulgent touch that feels like a treat but packs a protein punch!

INGREDIENTS

• 3 T oats or 2 T coconut flour

• 1/3 c vanilla or chocolate protein powder (usually about a serving) @thepeachiespoon.nutrition

• 1 T coconut flour (skip if using flour instead of oats)

• dash salt

• 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 T almond or peanut butter (drippy kind)

• 2 T pumpkin purée

• desired dark chocolate chips, used about 10

  STEPS

1. Combine ingredients (except chocolate chips) in a small bowl. Stir well. If using a plant pea protein, you may need a little milk to thin.

2. Shape into a cookie shape on a lined baking sheet. Top with chocolate chips.

3. Bake at 350° for 7-8 minutes in the oven or air fryer 350° for 4-5 minutes like I did this time or until preferred “done-ness” is achieved.

4. Allow to cool 5 min or so to harden (you can do hard things). You can also microwave for 1 - 1 1/2 minutes in the bowl but you’ll have to eat it with a spoon. Can also meal prep and make ahead of time and store in the fridge.
