No Bake Vegan Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup plump, soft Medjool dates (about 9 dates); pits removed
- 3/4 cup salted natural peanut butter, I used crunchy (no added oil or sugar)
- 5 tablespoons unsweetened unflavored oat milk (I use Silk)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or pumpkin spice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Pink sea salt, to taste
- Melted dark chocolate (I used 72% sweetened with coconut sugar), optional
Instructions
- Pulse the oats, dates, and peanut butter in a food processor, scraping down the sides as necessary.
- Once the mixture starts to come together, add the milk, cinnamon or pumpkin spice, vanilla, and salt.
- Pulse, then blend on low until the mixture comes together.
- Roll the dough into 12 balls, then gently flatten into cookie shapes.
- Drizzle with dark chocolate if you wish.
- Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
