Peanut butter no-bake cookies

Over the last few weeks, Jack and I have eaten more of these peanut butter no-bake cookies than we’d like to admit. They’re sweet and nutty, with an addictive chewy texture that comes from lots of peanut butter and whole rolled oats. We’ve pretty much had a constant supply of them on hand, because as soon as you finish one batch, it only takes a few minutes to whip up another and pop it in the fridge to chill.

I recommend you enjoy these peanut butter no-bake cookies for dessert or an afternoon treat, but if I’m being totally honest, they make a great grab-and-go breakfast, too. Can you tell that we can’t get enough of them?

How to Make Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

These no-bake peanut butter oatmeal cookies are super easy to make! Here’s what you need to do:

First, stir together the wet ingredients. Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt to a medium bowl…

…and stir until smooth.

When the wet ingredients are totally combined, stir in the oats and chocolate chips. Fold until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.

Then, shape the cookies. Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the dough. Roll it into balls, and flatten each one into a cookie shape. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment or waxed paper, and transfer it to the fridge to chill overnight.

That’s it! The next day, your no-bake peanut butter cookies will be ready to eat.

Notes

*If your peanut butter is salted, start with half the amount of salt and add more to taste. Be sure to use natural peanut butter that is smooth, not the chunky stuff that you sometimes find at the bottom of the jar.
