These hearty Cranberry Protein Cookies are made from wholesome ingredients with a punch of protein. Banana and dried cranberries add just the right amount of natural sugar without being overly sweet.

Today, I’m sharing another recipe from my brand new cookbook, The Everything Diet Macro Cookbook!

After reading Why We Get Sick, I am hyper-aware of what I’m eating and how it affects my insulin levels. I like to pay attention to glycemic load of foods, which is why I love these cookies so much.  They won’t spike your insulin (like a traditional sugary cookie) and leave you with a sugar high and then crash. Basically, they’re not some wussy cookie either. They’re loaded with oats, almond butter, and protein powder, so they are much more substantial and have some serious staying power!

Cookies don’t have to be a guilty treat. Make a batch and eat them on-the-go to the gym, for breakfast or as a quick snack in the afternoon – enjoy!
