  3. Heat until just able to combine. If you boil this, the sugar make up will change and they will become too sweet and not near as moist.

  4. Once the wets have just combined, dump in your bowl of dries. Stir until all the oats are coated.

  5. Lay out a piece or two of parchment paper. Using a large spoon, put the cookie mixture onto the sheet in large dollops. The size is up to you; I like to make them small so that they go further in terms of trying to control how much I eat. (They are too good, I have a hard time not eating them all in the first day or two!)

  6. Once cooled, put them in either an airtight container or ziploc bag. I tend to keep them on their parchment paper as they are sticky and stay very moist, and so have a tendency to meld together if not separated by something.

Recipe Notes

I eat two or three a day and notice I am able to pump an ounce more from each side than normal. This of course varies from person to person, so experiment! I hope the combination of the calories from the peanut butter and the supply boosting powers of flax, oatmeal and brewer's yeast help you as much as it has helped me!
