Ingredients
  

Protein Latte Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned oats
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder about 30 grams
  • 2 tsp instant espresso powder for latte flavor
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon optional
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 0.25 cup milk dairy or nondairy
  • 0.25 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cup white chocolate chips optional

Ice Cream Cookie Filling

  • 0.5 cup light vanilla frozen yogurt optional sandwich filling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix oats, protein powder, espresso powder, baking powder, and cinnamon in a bowl until evenly combined.
  • Whisk egg, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • Combine wet and dry mixtures. Stir until a thick dough forms. Fold in white chocolate chips if desired.
  • Scoop dough onto the tray and gently flatten each portion for a uniform texture.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until lightly golden around the edges and soft in the center.
  • Cool completely. For an Ice Cream Cookie or Bristle Cookie variation, sandwich frozen yogurt between two cookies and freeze until firm.

Notes

For softer cookies, remove them at the lower baking time. For crispier cookies, bake a few minutes longer. Freeze cookies individually before storing to preserve texture. Assemble sandwich versions quickly and return them to the freezer immediately. Customize flavors with cocoa powder, caramel extract, or pumpkin spice. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
