Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine oats, chocolate chips, sugar, protein powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Add peanut butter, 1 egg, and vanilla extract; mix well. Mix in remaining egg. Knead until dough is thick and sticky.

Step 3

Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Using your palm, slightly flatten cookies.
