Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup melted coconut oil
½ cup natural creamy peanut butter (or almond butter)
½ cup coconut sugar
¼ cup cocoa powder
¼ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
pinch of sea salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 cups instant oats

Steps:

  • Add melted coconut oil and peanut butter in a medium mixing bowl and stir until combined. Add coconut sugar, cocoa powder, almond milk, sea salt, vanilla.
  • If desired you can heat the peanut butter cocoa mixture on the stovetop over medium low heat to fully dissolve the coconut sugar, about 5-6 minutes. Sometimes I do this and sometimes I don't. Depends on how much time I have.
  • Add oats to a large mixing bowl and top with peanut butter cocoa mixture. Stir until well combined.
  • Using a small/medium cookie scoop, scoop the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use your hands to press the dough down a bit and form the cookies into a cookie shape.
  • Place baking sheet in fridge until cookies are set, then serve. Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.

HEALTHY NO BAKE COOKIES



Healthy No Bake Cookies image

I played around with my family's No Bake Cookie recipe and produced a single portion of this cookie that I feel is healthy enough to eat as a meal. They're still very good but are much healthier. I keep getting asked for the recipe, so I finally decided to measure out the exact portions and post the recipe. THIS RECIPE IS VERY FLEXIBLE! When I make them I NEVER measure out anything and I often add more or less of ingredients and they still taste great. I sometimes leave out the wheat germ and flax seeds and just add more oatmeal. I have made these replacing the sugar with about 3 tablespoons of honey. I have changed the recipe from 1 tsp. to 1 Tbsp. of cocoa powder.

Time 8m

Yield 12 cookies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons skim milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/8 cup wheat germ (heaping)
1 1/2 teaspoons ground flax seeds (optional)
1 cup quick oatmeal

Steps:

  • Heat milk, sugar and cocoa powder over high heat until boiling, stirring constantly.
  • Take off heat and stir in vanilla and peanut butter; stir until peanut butter has melted completely.
  • Stir in wheat germ and oatmeal.
  • Drop by large spoonfuls onto wax paper or eat immediately.
  • *As I noted above, this recipe is VERY flexible. If you don't have wheat germ or flax seed, just use more oatmeal. The recipe above should work out just perfectly and does most of the time, but if your cookies come out crumbly, use less oatmeal next time. If they never set, use more oatmeal next time.

Tips:

- To make your cookies extra gooey, use a combination of peanut butter and almond butter. - If you don't have maple syrup, you can substitute honey or agave nectar. - For a crunchy cookie, add some chopped nuts or seeds. - If you want a sweeter cookie, add a few more tablespoons of maple syrup or honey. - Be sure to chill the cookies for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help them set and firm up.

Conclusion:

These healthier no-bake cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that the whole family will enjoy. They're made with wholesome ingredients like peanut butter, almond butter, and oats, and they're sweetened with maple syrup or honey instead of refined sugar.
