I don't know about you guys but after yesterday I feel...
well...fat.
I ate a bunch.
So I figure, let's share a healthier recipe today, shall we?
I mean...they're still cookies.
It's not like I'm all like "Oh hey guys here's a recipe for roasted squash and kale and stuff"
Baby steps, you guys, baby steps.
(Um...I really wish that I wanted to eat stuff like that though. Why can't I feel about veggies the way I do about cookieeees?!)
These cookies are like super simple to put together.
And they taste pretty darn delish.
Chewy, nutty, chocolatey, tastiness.
Healthy Oatmeal Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Makes 6 cookies.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp. brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup egg whites
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper or silpat.
- In a large bowl mix all of the ingredients together until combined.
- Portion medium balls of dough onto a cookie sheet-press down on the dough slightly(they will pretty much maintain that shape through baking, so make sure to shape them as desired).
- Bake 10-12 minutes until the edges are beginning to brown. Allow to cool.
The picture says it all.
