You can increase the protein by adding some collagen protein to them (unflavored, of course). I play with subs in all my baking, even if I am not the one eating it - making them better for my family. There have been some royal failures, but for the most part, I am able to make almost anything without anyone being able to tell they are healthy.
Yep, I was thinking protein would probably be a good addition to this one too.
This photo is in my albums on my profile. These were perfect for me, banana-based, no sweetener at all, and they were tasty, but not so much that I wanted to eat more than one. They're protein bars but I can't find the recipe. You almost don't need one, though. Mash a few overripe bananas, add some grains like oats and wheat germ, some dried fruits and nuts, a pinch of salt and baking powder, and drop by tablespoons onto a baking sheet. 375, 10 to 12 minutes, let cool on the cookie sheet to solidify, et voila!I've been starting to play around with substitutes. Nutter Butter and Oreo's, well I could never stop at just one!!! That's why I totally cut that stuff out and I am fine with that. But during this baking season when I'm making cookies for my daughter's family, neighbors, etc it is nice to find a healthier cookie. I agree with your tiny bite and savoring it. I've even gotten to the point where just smelling food and enjoying the smell without eating it is fine too!
