With protein in mind, I found this cookie recipe on Pinterest. The original poster is ElizasEdibles.com but I've made several changes. Feel free to check out her recipe for comparison sake.
1 can of black beans
2 Tbsp milk
3 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil
3 Tbsp oats (next time try 1/2 cup!)
2 Tbsp cocoa
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix first three ingredients in food processor until smooth. Add remaining ingredients. Mix until combined.
Drop onto baking sheet by teaspoonful.
Bake for 10 minutes (next time try baking a little longer). Made 2 dozen small cookies.
Notes:
More oats would hide the bean texture a bit more. The batter is very soft, so it would be very easy to add quite a bit more oats without getting too dry.
Ten minutes left me with not-quite-done cookies, but we'll see how they taste when they're completely cooled.
These cookies need to be stored in the fridge.
