These are my new go-to cookies for kids, adults, BBQs, and all events in between. You could make them with any nut butter and they’re pretty safe for all events. As written, they’re Gluten free and Dairy free and pretty FODMAP safe in general! Since being diagnosed with IBS, I’ve had to learn to modify recipes and there are a ton that can still be delicious. This. Is. One. Of. Those. :) And easy enough for your kids to make it, so #winning!! I love getting my kids in the kitchen to help and hope they’ll grow up spending time in the kitchen with their wife and kids one day.

Not only are these easy, but you probably have all the ingredients on hand so there’s little cost to these. I hate when I’m half-way through a recipe and find I don’t have everything. Yes, I know if I gathered everything ahead of time, that wouldn’t be possible, but except for Rachel Ray, does anyone really do that??? LOL

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup CLEAN peanut butter (no added oils or sugar)
1 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 cup maple syrup (you can sub honey if you don’t have any on hand)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet) ** chose dairy free if you have allergies

DIRECTIONS:
1) Combine all wet ingredients and blend well. I prefer my Kitchenaid mixer because I can turn it on and walk away to prep something else.

2) In separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir well.

3) mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir well. Add chocolate chips and fold in.

Put on silicon baking sheet so no oil or butter is needed. I love these and this mat has lasted me 6+ yrs. You can get them super cheap on Amazon! Buy a 2-pack so while one is cooling the other can go straight in the oven. These won’t spread much so you can put a lot of batter on one sheet. Watch the oven till you’ve made these 1-2 times. You don’t want to overcook anything with peanut butter because they dry out super quick. I cooked these at 160 degree celsius / 350 farenheit for 9 minutes.

Enjoy and let me know how you modify this!!
