Preheat oven to 400°
Prepare muffin tin by spraying with non-stick cooking/baking spray. Set aside.
Add the ground almonds, ground sunflower seeds, cinnamon (and maple syrup or honey if desired) and banana into food processor and pulse until thoroughly combined.
Stir in Crispy Green Apple pieces.
Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the cookie "batter" and press into prepared muffin cups. You want to fill each cup about 1/3 to 1/2 way. I was able to use 8 of the muffin cups.
Bake for 10 minutes, the edges will be slightly brown.
Allow to cool.
When ready to serve top with a scoop of your favorite yogurt, I used my homemade vanilla yogurt and a slice of kiwi. Enjoy!
Feel free to experiment topping these yummy protein cookies with other fruits.
If packing for a lunch, I recommend putting the yogurt and kiwi slices on the side.
I did not add in the ample syrup or honey when I made these yummy protein cookies, but if you think you will need an extra dose of sweetness, feel free!
