Ingredients:

1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (15% off affiliate link!)
3 tbsp pumpkin puree
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 tbsp - 4 tbsp almond milk, or preferred dairy free milk
Icing:
2-3 tbsp plain coconut yogurt
2 tbsp vanilla protein powder
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Recipe:
Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a small baking tray with parchment paper.
To a small mixing bowl add: oat flour, vanilla protein, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and 2 tbsp almond milk. Mix together forming a dough.
If the dough is too dry add 1-2 tbsp more almond milk.
Roll into one large cookie dough ball and press onto the prepared baking tray.
Press the cookie down, it won't rise or expand very much.
Bake for 10 minutes or until cookie is browned on the bottom.
Allow to cool completely before icing.
You can set the cookie in the fridge to speed this up if needed!
For the icing add the 2 tbsp yogurt and 1-2 tbsp vanilla protein and whip together until you have a thick, spreadable icing. Depending on the protein powder and yogurt you're using you might have to add more protein powder or more yogurt to reach desired consistency.
Whip in 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice.
Once cookie is cooled spread the icing thick across the cookie.
Keep the cookie in the fridge until ready to eat.
Enjoy!
