Cinnamon Maple Oatmeal Cookies

CINNAMON MAPLE OATMEAL COOKIES

Recipe by Janeva Eickhoff

Ingredients:

• 1 Ideal Protein maple or apple oatmeal mix (dry)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp Splenda
• 1/8 tsp cinnamon
• 3 Tbsp liquid egg whites
• 2 tsp *coconut oil (or grapeseed or olive oil)
• ¼ tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 Tbsp water
• Cooking spray (I use Pam coconut cooking spray)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the dry ingredients.
3. Add the liquid ingredients; mix well with a spatula making sure to incorporate the coconut oil.
4. Drop 6 spoonfuls far apart onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
5. Spray the back of the spoon with cooking spray and spread each cookie to the thickness of a thin mint.
6. Bake 12 minutes. Cool on cooling rack.

Servings – 6 cookies = 1 unrestricted

TIP: When spreading the cookies with the back of the spoon, wipe clean from any batter and spray again for each cookie. This will make them much easier to spread.

* Some clinics allow members to use coconut oil occasionally because of the nutritional value some members desire. Please ok this through your own clinic if you have questions. If you substitute olive oil, they will not be as crispy on the outside and the texture will change. I highly recommend the coconut oil.
