Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Mixture
  • 2 cups Old-Fashioned Oats Quick oats can work in a pinch but may yield a different outcome.

  • 1 cup Peanut Butter Smooth peanut butter is optimal; almond butter can be a variation.
  • 1/4 cup Milk Dairy or a non-dairy alternative like almond or oat milk.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Almond extract can be tried for a different twist.
For Optional Mix-Ins
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Nuts Walnuts or almonds work wonderfully.
