Banana Fudge Protein Cookies

An old recipe that I created a little while ago but have only just realised I never wrote up! I actually first made these last summer during my contest prep when I was really craving some banoffee pie!

Servings: Makes 5 chunky cookies

Macros per cookie: 139kcal / 10g protein / 22g carbs / 2g fat / 1.5g fibre

Ingredients:

40g banana protein powder (if you don't have banana you can use vanilla)

1 large banana (the riper the better)

80g oats

1 tsp baking powder

15g mini fudge pieces (available in the baking section of most large supermarkets)

1 tbsp honey

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 180c.

2. Mix together all ingredients (except fudge pieces) in a food processor. You should end up with a cookie dough consistency.

3. Press the dough into cookie shapes on a baking tray lined with baking paper (or you can use a silicone baking mat if preferred).

4. Press a few fudge pieces into the top of each cookie & bake in the centre of the oven for 10-12 minutes (or until cookies are golden brown & fudge has melted slightly).

5. Place on a wire rack to cool or enjoy warm.
