These Protein Cookies are great for breakfast on the run or perfect if you want a healthy mid afternoon snack! There’s no added sugar, no flour, just oats, bananas, protein powder, peanut butter, egg and sugar free chocolate chips. They are a larger beefed up form my original Healthy Cookies, with more than two times the protein, so they will keep you feeling fuller longer. Thanks to the oats, peanut butter, protein powder and egg, they have 12 grams of protein per serving. They are super filling and over 8 grams of fiber. And a great way to use up those ripe bananas!

Banana Oatmeal Protein Cookies

SO just to be completely transparent, these are healthy cookies. There’s no flour, butter, baking powder so you’re not going to get the texture of a typical dessert cookie. Instead, they are chewy, and delicious and did I mention healthy? Best eaten warm in my opinion.

Banana Oat Protein Cookie Ingredients:

  • Bananas: You’ll want to use very ripe bananas – the riper the bananas, the sweeter the cookies.
  • Oats: Use old-fashioned oats, or quick oats.
  • Nut Butter: I used peanut butter, but you can also use almond butter or seed butter if you have nut allergies.
  • Vanilla Protein Powder: 1 scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder
  • Egg: One large egg has six grams of protein.
  • Salt: a pinch of kosher salt
  • Flavor: Cinnamon and vanilla make these breakfast cookies smell and taste amazing.
  • Chocolate Chips: I use Lily’s sugar-free chocolate chips, but feel free to use regular semi-sweet chips.

How to Store, Freeze, and Reheat

These healthy protein cookies hold up well and will last up to four days in the fridge. They can be eaten at room temp or warmed in the microwave for 10 seconds.

You can also freeze these cookies for up to three months and thaw for a few hours in the refrigerator or microwave straight from the freezer.

Protein Cookie Variations:

  • Swap peanut butter for almond or cashew butter or sunflower butter for a nut-free cookie.
  • Switch out the chocolate chips for raisins or dried cranberries.
  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra protein.
