Hi Bold Bakers! Just when you thought there was no other way to improve on a classic peanut butter cookie I went and did it! My Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies are the stuff of dreams. Made without an oven these cookies are a genius combination of just 4 wholesome ingredients. Just like my baked 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies, these babies are decorated with a pretty crosshatch pattern then dipped in melted chocolate. My peanut butter cookies are chewy, nutty, and dipped in rich melted chocolate for a dreamy combination. Already have an account?
How to Make No Bake Cookies
My no bake peanut butter cookies are truly fool-proof. Creamy peanut butter combines with the stickiness of honey to ensure that these cookies stay together for a satisfying on-the-go snack. They don’t need the binding agent that raw eggs are in your typical baked cookies so no need to bake them! What’s more, oat flour doesn’t need to be heat treated like regular flour and is a perfect replacement.
How to Make Oat Flour
For those of you that have never worked with oat flour before, do not worry. It is so easy to make. Simply blitz up some rolled oats in your food processor or blender for a fine powder that resembles normal, all-purpose flour. Oat flour is great to have around for all kinds of baking and cooking and has no expiration date once ground. I love to make a big batch all at one time and keep this in the cupboard for regular baking. I even have a video and my full recipe for How to Make Oat Flour if you need it.
Making Gluten-Free, Oil-free and Vegan Cookies
Since these easy no bake cookies utilize oat flour they are completely flourless and void of gluten. They also require no egg or butter which makes them a super-rich option for vegan baking. The sticky sweet peanut butter is the superhero of this recipe as it holds the cookie together, keeps it moist (without any additional oil) and is packed with that beloved toasted peanut flavor. You can replace the peanut butter with any nut butter that you’d like. Also you can replace the honey with another liquid sugar like agave or maple syrup.
