- 1 cup creamy peanut butter all natural
- ½ cup honey substitute agave nectar for lower glycemic index
- ½ cup coconut oil cold pressed is preferred
- 2 scoops chocolate protein powder I prefer the Orgains brand
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 2½ cups quick oats
- ⅔ cup shredded coconut flakes unsweetened
In a microwaveable bowl, add in the peanut butter, coconut oil, and honey. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Take out and stir, then microwave on high for another 30 seconds. Take out and stir to completely combine.
Add in the vanilla extract, unsweetened cocoa powder, and the 2 scoops of chocolate protein powder. Stir to combine.
Add in the quick oats and the unsweetened coconut flakes, stir to combine.
Add in the chia seeds and again, stir to combine.
Once batter is thoroughly mixed, scoop the dough onto a silicone lined cookie sheet. A ¼ cup cookie scoop is my favorite size. Press down the ball of dough until it is flat on top and an even circle size. Once all of the dough has been scoop onto the cookie sheet, place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the dough to set.
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
