Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a large baking sheet by covering with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, stir together peanut butter, applesauce, Splenda Magic Baker Sweetener, flaxseed, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
-
Add in oats and protein powder, stirring until incorporated. Fold in cranberries and pumpkin seeds.
-
Scoop dough onto parchment paper 3 inches apart into large cookie-sized balls. Press each dough ball down into a cookie to shape (they won’t spread very much). Bake for 12–14 minutes, or just until golden brown around the edge.
-
Remove and let cool. They may be enjoyed immediately, placed in an air-tight container and enjoyed within 3 days, or frozen for future easy breakfasts.
