Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a medium saucepan over low heat, gently warm the natural peanut butter, maple syrup (natural), apple cider vinegar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, and vanilla extract (natural) until smoothly blended. Stir continuously to create a consistent, creamy base.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients Separately: In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, cocoa powder (natural), and natural gelling agent. Ensure the dry ingredients are evenly combined for uniform texture.
  3. Bring It All Together: Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Using a sturdy spatula, fold the mixture until every oat is coated and the thick dough forms evenly.
  4. Shape the Cookies: Working quickly, use a spoon or your hands to form small rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Press gently to flatten each cookie slightly for even setting.
  5. Chill Until Set: Place the cookies in the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 20 minutes, allowing the natural gelling agent to firm up the cookies to perfect consistency.

Notes

  • Use creamy peanut butter for easier blending and a silky texture.
  • Measure oats accurately to maintain proper texture and shape.
  • Shape cookies swiftly before mixture firms up.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to keep fresh and chewy for up to a week.
  • Taste mixture before chilling to adjust sweetness with extra maple syrup (natural) if needed.
