Protein Pumpkin Cookies
It's almost that time of year, and although I am not a big pumpkin fan, everyone else around here seems to be ;) I hope to post a few more pumpkin recipes over the next couple of days.
This great thing about this recipe is that it is considered 'on plan' with Erik and Noel's nutrition programs :clap: you may have to modify it based on your own needs/requirements. This recipe will work perfectly if your program calls for 6 egg whites, 40g oats and 35g berries.
Ingredients
35 g old fashion oats
3 egg whites
15 g vanilla protein powder (or ½ scoop)
¼ c (60g) canned pumpkin
4 g SF Fat Free Cheesecake pudding mix
½ tsp. baking powder
½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
½ tsp. cinnamon
3 packets of Splenda or SF syrup (optional)
Directions: preheat oven to 350 degrees
• In bullet or blender mix egg whites and splenda together
• In separate bowl, add all remaining ingredients
• Pour liquid mixture in with dry mixture and mix thoroughly
• Place on cookie sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes
