Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, protein powder, sweeteners, and any mix-ins. In another bowl, mash bananas, applesauce, or yogurt, then combine with the dry ingredients.
  3. Scoop the cookie dough onto the baking sheet, shaping them into round cookies spaced 1-2 inches apart.
