Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

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

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature while you prepare the cookie dough.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, and honey until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the oats, vanilla extract, and baking soda until everything is evenly combined into a thick batter.
  4. Form Cookies: Use a spoon to drop dollops of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookies are set.
  6. Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them firm up and enhances their chewy texture.

Notes

  • For a nuttier flavor, use crunchy peanut butter instead of smooth.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan version.
  • Use gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free cookie.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • To add texture, consider mixing in chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
