Oatmeal Raisin Protein Cookies
While being cocooned in the house, I’m finding creative ways to spend my day. One thing I enjoy is baking… I got a little creative in the kitchen, and whipped up this “Protein Oatmeal Raisin Cookie” recipe from Eating Bird Food.
Due to all the stockpiling, it’s hard to find sugar, flour, or eggs at the grocery store… and this recipe doesn’t include any of those ingredients, so you’re in luck!
With rolled oats, flax seeds, KS Wellness protein, bananas, raisins, and applesauce, these protein cookies are a guilt-free pleasure. Because of the fiber, fat, and protein, they will give you the energy and pick-me-up without the crash! I added some walnuts for an extra crunch.
As you practice isolating at home, these protein cookies are a little way to add extra protein to your day without adding pounds to the scale!

- 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

- 1/2 cup raisins
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed

INSTRUCTIONS
