Ingredients:

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
• 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
• 1/4 cup milk (any kind, or dairy-free alternative)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

How to Make No-Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies:

Prepare the Mixture:
In a medium saucepan, combine the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), milk, and vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and slightly warmed—about 2-3 minutes.

Mix in Oats:
Remove from heat and stir in the rolled oats and a pinch of salt. Mix until everything is well combined and the oats are evenly coated with the peanut butter mixture.

Form the Cookies:
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten the cookies slightly with the back of the spoon to shape them.

Chill:
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes or until the cookies firm up.

Serve:
Once chilled, remove the cookies from the refrigerator and enjoy! Store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
