Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is at the correct temperature for baking the cookies evenly.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the oats, vanilla extract, and baking soda thoroughly to create a consistent dough.
  4. Shape Dough: Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly to allow room for spreading.
  5. Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the centers have set.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool completely before serving to help them firm up and develop their texture.

Notes

  • Use natural peanut butter without added sugar or oils for a healthier option.
  • Ensure the Greek yogurt is plain and unsweetened to balance the sweetness of honey.
  • For a crunchier texture, slightly toast the oats before mixing.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • These cookies are suitable for a vegetarian diet and contain no added flour or refined sugars.
