Healthy Monster Cookies are a wholesome and delicious treat made with oats, peanut butter, honey, and chocolate chips. These cookies offer a perfect balance of sweetness and texture, combining chewy oats with rich peanut butter and melty chocolate chips, all naturally sweetened with honey for a healthier alternative to traditional cookies.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
  • 1/2 cup honey

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and chocolate chips. Add the peanut butter and honey, then mix thoroughly until a consistent dough forms with all ingredients evenly incorporated.
  2. Preheat Oven and Shape Cookies: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form dough into evenly sized balls and place them on the baking sheet, gently pressing each ball to flatten slightly.
  3. Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just set and lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake; the cookies will firm up as they cool.
  4. Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve once cool or store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, ensure you use certified gluten-free oats.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup if preferred.
  • Feel free to add nuts, dried fruits, or seeds for extra texture and nutrients.
  • Store cookies at room temperature in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
  • These cookies are best enjoyed within a week for optimal freshness.
