Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt (for sprinkling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the natural peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Crack the egg into the bowl and mix it in thoroughly.
Add the rolled oats and baking soda to the wet ingredients and stir until fully incorporated. If using chocolate chips, fold them in now.
Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop evenly sized cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a fork to make a crosshatch pattern.
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each cookie for added flavor (optional).
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Healthy Beanutiful Cookies as a nutritious snack or dessert!
