These healthy Easy Vegan Gluten-Free Peanut Oatmeal Cookies are easy to make, taste so delicious, and are gluten-free. They make an awesome snack or a healthier dessert!
Here’s the deal, I love peanut butter and oats, combined? even better!
I love warm oatmeal in the morning with a drizzle of peanut butter…mmm!
But a peanut butter cookie with oats, oh my! The only trouble is, that I tend to eat too many of these cookies when I make them.
Having a bowl of oatmeal is fine, cos when you eat that oatmeal, that’s it, it’s gone, but with cookies…oh my.
To make these cookies healthier, I tend to use good quality peanut butter made with 100% peanuts only. Avoid buying peanut butters with added sugar or palm oil – these are not good for you.
How To Make These Vegan Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies?
Crunchy or smooth peanut butter? it doesn’t really matter, I personally like crunchy. So, I chose crunchy!
Once you’ve got your peanut butter selected, all you need to do is mix everything together in one bowl and bake it up. This is such a simple recipe and takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish.
Now, go make these cookies ASAP.
