Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup chopped mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, pecans)
  • 1/2 cup chopped dates or raisins
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup peanut butter (plant-based), slightly softened
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Gather and Prepare Ingredients: Measure out your oats, nuts, chopped dried fruit, and seeds. Make sure the nut butter is slightly softened to mix easily. Prepare your maple syrup (natural), vanilla extract (natural), natural gelling agent, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, dried fruits, chia seeds, and salt. Stir gently to distribute everything evenly.
  3. Prepare Binding Mixture: In a smaller bowl, blend together the peanut butter (plant-based), maple syrup (natural), vanilla extract (natural), and natural gelling agent until smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the creamy peanut butter and syrup mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until every oat and nut is coated and the texture holds together when pressed.
  5. Shape the Cookies: Using your hands or a cookie scoop, form the mixture into small rounds and place them on a parchment-lined tray. Press gently to flatten the tops for an even cookie shape.
  6. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes so they firm up. This waiting time makes them easier to handle and enhances the flavors blending perfectly.

Notes

  • Use old-fashioned oats to maintain a chewy texture.
  • Toast nuts lightly before chopping for extra flavor and crunch.
  • Mix the wet ingredients evenly to avoid crumbly cookies.
  • Chilling the cookies is essential for proper setting.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
