Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut oil, maple syrup, and cocoa powder over medium heat.
Stir the mixture constantly until it’s smooth and begins to bubble slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and mix in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined.
Add the rolled oats to the saucepan and stir thoroughly until all the oats are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the cookie mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into small mounds or flat rounds as desired.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill the cookies for at least 30 minutes, or until they are firm and set.
Once set, remove the cookies from the baking sheet and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
