Updated Recipe, Peanut butter cookies



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I took the "No Flour Peanut Butter cookies" and changed it a little and its great, Everyone here wants to eat them. But there mine,,,,,Here it is .........

Bob’s NEW VERSION,

No Flour Peanut Butter Cookies

1 cup Peanut Butter (crunchy or creamy)

½ cup Quick oats Oat meal

¼ cup Splenda

½ teaspoon Baking soda

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 Egg

1 tablespoon of Milk if needed for more moisture

A. Place peanut butter in glass bowl place it in microwave for 20 to 30 secs. To soften it for mixing

B. Take Oat meal and place it in a food processor, chop it up to a course but smaller Oats. Then add to peanut butter.

C. Mix in remaining stuff, Splenda, baking soda, vanilla, egg and milk if needed for more moisture

Mix it all together, spoon it on to your cookie sheet around 15 estimated, depending on the size you like. Cookies will turn out fluffy and in one piece and very yummy. These are a hit around my home now.

Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes.

:D

I am going to be banded in about 6 weeks, and I want to try a few recipes to see how much I will enjoy high Protein low carb foods. Okay, this is the first recipe I have ever tried and am surprised to say they are pretty good.

I made a few changes and tried to figure out calories, but this is my first time so I may be off for some reason, if so just call me on it. I'd like to know if I did this wrong.

I didn't have any splenda so I used stevia instead. Here is a conversion chart I used. Cooking With Stevia and Stevia Recipes

I only used 10 packets because it was all I had. Got it form here STEVITA Stevias ($2.59 for 50 ct) I thought that was a good price.

I'm going to get crazy with the math so hold onto your hats.

Stevia has 0 calories and 1/2 cup splenda = 384 calories SPLENDA

Splenda adds 25 calories per cookie Stevia ands none.

So kick it up a little I added 5 chocolate chips to each cookie (not SF)

there are 70 calories in appx 18 chocolate chips so 5 chips would be about 19.44 calories per cookie.

I also wanted to try this with Protein powder so I made 8 Cookies without Protein Powder and to the rest of the batch I added 1/2 scoop of Chocolate powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury (50 calories and 10 grams of protein) and made 7 more Cookies which only added apx 2 grams of Protein and 8 more calories per cookie.

http://www.unjury.com/reg/unjury-chocolate.pdf

in a nut shell... these cookies with just subbing the stevia but adding chocolate chips about 5 calories less than the recipe above.

with the protein added only 3 calories more but with 2 more grams of protein.

Note: I thought the cookies with the protein powder were a little moister.

Good grief I hoped that made since. I have never cooked with protein powder but have read that you can do so.

I was wanting to know how your surgery. I will go tomorrow for the blood work, X-ray, and pre-anesthesia test and my surgery is for suppose to be done on May 14th. I have read alot about this surgery but all the information you read is so overwhelming. I thought maybe hearing from a person that has been through the experience might help.

Hi Kygurl,

Oh, you will be soooo happy you are doing this. My Lapband is the best thing I could have done for myself. I feel that I gave myself the gift of good health. Yes, It can be difficult at times, but you learn to get around that and you'll feel so good when the weight starts coming off and you start feeling great. Good luck to you!

Hi!

I LOVE these Cookies (and so does the rest of my family). When I made them, I figured all the ingredients, added the calories up, and divided by 15, which is the batch amount. That gives you 75 calories and 4 grams of Protein per cookie (as long as you make 15 cookies per batch).

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        Good Luck this procedure is well worth it I am down to 249.6 lb please continue with the process..

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!
