Healthy Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies
These peanut butter no-bake cookies are everything we love about the classic recipe, with a few wholesome ingredient swaps and additions. Naturally vegan, use certified GF oats to make them gluten free, too!
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup Planters Dry Roasted Peanuts chopped
- 1/2 cup all-natural, drippy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup brown rice syrup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- sea salt to taste
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Add all ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Mix together until well combined. The mixture should be fairly moist and malleable.
- Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out each cookie and roll the dough between your palms until a ball forms. Place the cookie dough ball onto the prepared baking sheet and gently press down on the top of the ball to slightly flatten. Repeat.
- If adding the chocolate drizzle, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave or on the stovetop. Drizzle over each cookie.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and freeze until the chocolate sets and the cookies are solid throughout.
Notes
- Storage: Once the cookies have fully frozen on the cookie sheet, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container and enjoy for up to 3 months.
- Peanut Butter: Our homemade peanut butter is great to use in these no bake peanut butter oatmeal cookies!
