Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Mixture
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter choose natural for best results

  • ½ cup maple syrup substitute with honey if desired
  • 2 cups quick oats avoid using old-fashioned oats unless broken down
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon helps regulate blood sugar

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Combine the wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add peanut butter, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well-blended.
  2. Incorporate the dry ingredients: Sprinkle in quick oats, cinnamon, and baking soda. Stir gently until just combined, folding in chocolate chips if desired.
  3. Let the cookie dough rest for 5 minutes to allow oats to absorb moisture.
  4. Shape the cookies: Scoop rounded portions of dough onto a baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with a spoon.
  5. Bake the cookies: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
  6. Cool and enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
