Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 cup almond butter or nut butter of choice
- 1-3 tablespoons milk of choice as needed for consistency

- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine oat flour, protein powder, coconut flour, and salt.
- Add almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
- Mix until combined. The mixture should be crumbly at this point.
- Add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough reaches a cookie dough consistency - should be firm but pliable.
- Fold in mix-ins for your chosen variation (see below).
- Roll the dough into 12 balls (about 1.5 tablespoons each).
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
- For a vegan option, use plant-based protein powder and maple syrup instead of honey.
- If the mixture is too dry, add more milk. If too wet, add more oat flour or protein powder.
- For a nut-free option, replace almond butter with sunflower seed butter.
- These can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
