Description
Delicious and easy no-bake cookies made with oats and a refreshing lemon flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, peanut butter, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed and the oats are fully coated.
- If using, fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into cookies.
- Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
- Once set, enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Notes
- For a nut-free version, substitute the peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or a similar alternative.
- Add a handful of chopped nuts or dried fruit for extra texture and flavor.
