Ingredients

⅔ cup peanut butter
3 tablespoons coconut oil
⅓ cup honey or pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup quick oats or old fashioned oats (see recipe notes)
¼ cup coconut shreds

Instructions

In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the peanut butter, coconut oil, and honey (or maple syrup). Stir continuously until fully melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
Whisk in the cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla extract until well combined and glossy.
Fold in the oats and shredded coconut. Feel free to add more as needed until the mixture is thick but still easy to scoop.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gently flatten if desired. Place in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes, or until firm.

Notes

Note: You can use quick cooking oats or old fashioned oats for this recipe. Quick oats create a softer, more classic no-bake cookie texture. Old-fashioned rolled oats can be used for a heartier, chewier cookie, that will appear to be a little bit "runnier," but will still set up well once refrigerated.
Save time/prep ahead:
- Make a double batch and keep extras in the freezer for a quick snack or dessert.
- Line prepared baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper for easy cleanup.
- These are perfect for making ahead for busy weeks, lunchboxes, or last-minute sweet treats.
- Portion with a cookie scoop for evenly sized cookies and faster prep.
These cookies are gluten free (but ensure the oats you use are certified gluten free if needed), dairy free, and vegetarian. They can be vegan with the use of maple syrup in place of honey.
