Keyword: Greek yogurt, oat flour, protein powder
Servings: 6 servings
- ⅓ cup (80 g) Greek yogurt or a firm nondairy yogurt
- ¾ cup 1 tbsp (80 g) protein powder
- ¾ cup (70 g) oat flour or almond flour/preferred flour
- 2 - 4 tbsp maple syrup or honey, to taste
- a pinch of salt
Optional Ingredients
- 4 tbsp chocolate chips sugar-free
- 2 tbsp peanut butter for cookie dough flavor
Heat oven to 360°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, protein powder (or more flour) and a pinch of salt. Add the Greek yogurt and maple syrup, then mix until the dough starts to come together. The dough should be soft but manageable. If it feels sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour; if it’s too dry, add a spoonful of Greek yogurt and mix again.
Transfer the dough to a clean, floured surface and knead quickly until it’s smooth.
Shape the cereals and line over the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in hot oven for 8 to 12 minutes, and let cool before serving or storing.
