Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240 ml) old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) peanut butter
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) chocolate chips
Sweeteners:
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) honey or maple syrup
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Assemble all necessary ingredients on a clean, spacious workspace.
- Combine rolled oats and chocolate chips in a generously sized mixing bowl, ensuring even distribution.
- In a separate vessel, vigorously whisk peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until achieving a silky, homogeneous consistency.
- Gradually transfer the liquid mixture into the dry ingredient bowl, stirring methodically to create a unified blend.
- Using clean hands or a precise cookie scoop, craft compact spheres approximately 2 tablespoons in volume, gently pressing each to create a slightly flattened disc on parchment-lined surface.
- Place prepared cookies in refrigerator for a minimum of 60 minutes, allowing them to solidify and develop a delectable, firm texture before indulging.
Notes
- Keep ingredients at room temperature for easier mixing and smoother texture.
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats instead of quick oats for better cookie structure and heartier bite.
- Swap peanut butter with almond or sunflower seed butter for nut-free alternative, ensuring similar consistency.
- Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top to enhance chocolate and peanut butter flavors, creating a delightful sweet-salty balance.
