Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 2 cups Rolled Oats Provides a chewy texture; using rolled oats will give the best consistency.
  • 1 cup Natural Peanut Butter Acts as a binding agent and adds creaminess; opt for natural peanut butter for a less sweet cookie.
  • 1/2 cup Honey or Maple Syrup Adds sweetness; maple syrup is a great vegan alternative.
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder Infuses the cookies with a rich chocolate flavor; use unsweetened cocoa powder.
