Chocolate Chip Protein Cookies

If anyone ever tells you that cookies aren't an acceptable pre- or post-workout snack...well, you send them over to us. We'll set them straight. Or, you could set them straight with these protein-packed cookies - whatever works!

• 2 ripe bananas
• 2 scoops Nuzest Clean Lean Protein, Smooth Vanilla flavor
• 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips
• Almond butter (optional)

1. Start by preheating your oven to 177 degrees C and lining a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. Peel the bananas, add them to a food processor, then process until smooth.
3. Add the Clean Lean Protein, then process again. Now, toss in the oats and give the mixture a few quick pulses.
4. Scoop 1/3 cup-sized rounds from the batter and place them on the cookie sheet.
5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges start to brown.
6. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven. While they're nice and warm, add 3-4 chocolate chips to the top of each cookie.
7. Let the chips melt, then demolish the cookies!
8. Bonus: Dip them in almond butter or a cold glass of almond milk.
