Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup chocolate chips or carob chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the honey, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and egg to the butter mixture. Mix until well incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
If desired, fold in chocolate chips or carob chips for extra sweetness and texture.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and shape them into small oval or bone-shaped pieces to mimic a cartoon snack theme. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Avoid overbaking for a soft and chewy texture.
Remove the Scooby Snacks from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy as is, or pack them into a colorful container for a fun treat anytime!
