I like food, A LOT. You probably already knew that! I love making healthier versions of JUNK we grew up eating.
I’ve got a recipe for none other than “oreos”. But I don’t have a lot of time and I am a total kitchen klutz so I DID NOT make this thing up.
I actually haven’t even looked into the nutrition aspect of it nor made them myself, but the thought of it was fun so I figured I would pass it on to you and check it out when I have more time (yeah that’s going to happen).
Cookie ingredients:
- 1/3 cup spelt flour
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- large pinch of salt
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 2 tbsp milk or almond milk
Filling ingredients:
- 1/2 cup greek yogurt
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Cookie directions:
- Whisk together dry ingredients in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix together all wet ingredients. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
- Add wet ingredients to dry and mix until a ball of dough forms and chill in fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a thin layer.
- Use a circle cookie cutter to cut out small circles of dough.
- Place circles of dough on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake 7-10 minutes and let cool before removing from pan.
Filling directions:
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Spread filling on a cooled cookie and top with another cookie.
If you do make these, fill free to drop one off at the gym, I’m usually there most of the day 😉 Have an awesome weekend TBT fam.
