Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips or dried fruit (optional)

1 cup Greek yogurt (for freezing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed and set aside.

      Cream Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated and creamy.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips or dried fruit for extra flavor.

          Form Cookie Rounds: Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each round slightly with the back of a spoon to create a cookie shape.

            Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

              Prepare Frozen Yogurt Layer: While the cookies cool, take 1 cup of Greek yogurt and spread it evenly in a shallow pan or a silicone mold. Freeze it for about 1 hour until it’s firm but still spreadable.

                Assemble Cookie Rounds: Once the cookies have cooled and the yogurt layer is sufficiently firm, take the yogurt from the freezer. Use a round cookie cutter (or the same size as your cookies) to cut out rounds of yogurt.

                  Sandwich Them Together: Place one yogurt round between two oatmeal cookies to create a sandwich. Repeat the process until all cookies are assembled.

                    Freeze Sandwiches: Place the assembled cookie rounds back in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until ready to serve.

                      Serve and Enjoy: Once frozen, remove from freezer, let sit at room temperature for a minute to soften slightly, then enjoy your refreshing Frozen Yogurt Oatmeal Cookie Rounds!
