Your cookie dough will look much smoother (the cookies below are made with oat flour), but I preferred the texture of the quick oats. If you don’t want any chewiness, you can use oat flour. I don’t recommend using rolled oats because you don’t have enough liquid in the dough to soften whole oats. Quick Oats: The oats help firm up the dough and provide texture for the cookies. However, honey will not thicken or firm up the dough at all, so I don’t recommend using honey. Some pancake syrups will also firm and thicken up the dough. You can use other liquid sweeteners but the outcome may vary. The maple syrup also thickens and firms up the peanut butter. Maple Syrup: The cookies are sweetened with pure maple syrup. Peanut butter can be substituted with natural almond butter or natural sunflower seed butter. The ingredients should just be peanuts and salt. This is the runny kind of peanut butter that you need to stir before using and there should not be any added oils in the ingredient list. Peanut Butter: This recipe uses natural unsweetened peanut butter. These cookies are great for a snack or dessert and are so easy to make. I love making no bake cookies, especially this time of year when the weather is so warm. They take only about 10 minutes to prepare and don’t need to be cooked or baked. They don’t require any flour, eggs, butter or oil. These no bake peanut butter cookies are an easy treat.
