Last Day!! Day 5 ~ Oatmeal Week, I have an oldie but goodie, a No Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookie. My kids rave over this healthy snack, it is a nice and healthy cookie that you can just pop in your mouth. These cookies taste like homemade granola bars. Try these out for yourself, they are nice and easy, no sifting any flour, all
you need is your stove top, fridge and a few ingredients, and these are the type of snacks that you can eat morning, noon or night! How did you like oatmeal week?
Ingredients
1/4 cup fat free milk
1/4 cup of light brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup of natural peanut butter
1/2 tsp of cocoa
1 1/2 cup of quick oats
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup fat free milk
1/4 cup of light brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup of natural peanut butter
1/2 tsp of cocoa
1 1/2 cup of quick oats
1/2 tsp vanilla
Directions
In a saucepan bring to a boil milk, sugar, butter, cocoa and peanut butter. Stir in oatmeal and vanilla. Drop by spoonfuls (I rolled them up in little balls) on parchment paper baking sheet and cool in the fridge for about 30 minutes, take out and eat YUMMY!

Hi Pamela. The For I know the Plans I Have 4 You link didn't work. You know I am pinning these cookies. One day I'll stop playin' around and really make something.
ReplyDeleteKenya the link is working now! Sorry.
DeleteI'm beginning to hate you. I used to love you...but every time I come here, you show me a recipe that's super easy to do!
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm kidding!!! Okay, so I don't have cocoa powder right now, any substitute?
Oh and you kidding me?!? Nutella week next week???? Ughhhh.... I'm trying to lose weight!!!
Ha you are a trip Anne! Do you have chocolate chips?
DeleteDon't have any right now.. but I might have to get some since I was just told we ran out of peanut butter today :( Have to get that too!!!
DeleteThis is a fabulous "oldie but goodie." HOWEVER, it does not travel well!!! Hot cars and no bake peanut butter do not play nicely together! My kids love these cookies though. I appreciate the no-bake aspect, especially during the summer.
ReplyDeleteWhile I don't like peanut butter these would be perfect to make for my husband who LOVES it! So quick and easy, perfect for summer.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe is super healthy compared to the 'regular' one Pam! I will have to try it on the kids. I wonder if you could add some sunflower seeds or some other protein in to take it up another notch.
ReplyDeletethat is one thing nice about recipes, you can always made them yours by playing with them.
That sounds doable! At first I thought they were meatballs, but then I read the post. I'm sure my kids would love them.
ReplyDeleteI Love this recipe!!! Best of all... I think I can even eat it {lowering my cholesterol}!! Woo Hoo!! So excited... i get to make this for my family this weekend!!! Thank you Pamela!! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThese look great. Not to mention easy I like easy!! I bet my kids would enjoy making them!
ReplyDeleteyum! trying these for sure!
