These gluten-free no-bake cookies are rich, chocolatey, and perfectly chewy with a hint of peanut butter. A quick and easy treat that requires no oven time.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup vegan butter
  • 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened vanilla preferred)
  • 3 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats, gluten-free
  • 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Add vegan butter, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and almond milk to a pot over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil. Let it boil for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
  3. Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until fully melted and combined.
  4. Add the gluten-free oats one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until the desired consistency is reached.
  5. Scoop portions onto the prepared cookie sheet using a spoon or cookie scoop.
  6. Gently press each cookie to shape, then refrigerate for 30–40 minutes until set.

Notes

  • Do not overboil the mixture, as it can affect the texture.
  • You may not need all the oats; adjust for consistency.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Optional: drizzle with melted peanut butter and sprinkle with flaky sea salt before chilling.
