Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter (natural or creamy)
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, rolled oats, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly mixed into a sticky dough-like consistency.
- Shape Cookies: Using your hands or a spoon, scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into small round cookies. Place them on a parchment-lined tray or plate.
- Chill to Set: Place the shaped cookies into the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes, or until firm and set. Once chilled, the cookies are ready to enjoy.
Notes
- You can substitute maple syrup with honey if preferred.
- For a crunchier texture, use old-fashioned rolled oats rather than quick oats.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Optional add-ins include chocolate chips, chia seeds, or shredded coconut for variety.
