Prep 15 min · Cook 25 min

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a half-sheet pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk the protein powder, oat flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and baking powder. Add the softened butter, molasses, and egg whites, stirring until a thick, sticky dough forms.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll them into balls with damp hands. Place on the prepared pan and flatten slightly into cookie shapes. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are set and the tops are firm to the touch. Done when firm and set.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the cookies rest for 15 minutes to firm up before moving them.
