Notes
- Oat flour can be substituted with gluten-free oat flour for a gluten-free version.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup to taste.
- This cookie dough is safe to eat raw as it contains no eggs or raw flour that hasn’t been heat-treated (consider using heat-treated oat flour if concerned about raw flour).
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For nut-free option, substitute almond butter with sunflower seed butter and use a plant-based protein powder without nuts.
