Total Time: 00h 15m
Makes: 20 servings
These little “two bite” cookies are chockfull of clean ingredients that you won’t feel so guilty about indulging on. They come together in just minutes without even turning on your mixer. Sprinkle them with a healthy pinch of Frontier applewood smoked salt before baking.....I know what you’re thinking “Smoked salt?” but trust me, it works. Dairy free, but can easily be made vegan by swapping the natural honey peanut butter for a natural maple peanut butter or plain. (Thank you to our friend Stacey Swanson for creating this wonderful recipe.)

Ingredients
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons of Bob’s Red Mill quick-cooking oats
- 1/3 cup of maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon of Frontier Co-op cinnamon
- 1/3 cup optional chopped nuts of choice
- 1/3 cup of a natural honey peanut butter *you want this natural peanut butter to be loose or more runny vs a thick peanut butter. If you want these cookies to be completely vegan you can use a plain natural peanut butter or a natural maple peanut butter vs the honey peanut butter.
- 1/3 cup of your favorite “dairy free” or “allergen free” mini chocolate chips
- 1/4 teaspoon of Frontier Co-op or Simply Organic Vanilla
- 1/8 teaspoon/pinch of Frontier Co-op salt
- Beyond Gourmet parchment paper
- Frontier Co-op applewood smoked sea salt for sprinkling
Directions
- 350 degree oven and 1 cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Place oats, pinch of regular salt, cinnamon, chips, nuts in a bowl and stir together.
- Pour on top the oat mixture the honey peanut butter and maple syrup and vanilla.
- Stir with a spatula until combined.
- These are a sticky cookie so keep a small bowl of water nearby to keep your fingers wet.
- Scoop a little more than a rounded tablespoon and gently just form & pat a small roughly 2 inch cookie shape. These do not really spread or puff so you can fit all of them on one sheet. You should end up with a baker’s dozen or 13 cookies.
- Sprinkle a healthy pinch of Frontier applewood smoked sea salt over each cookie and back for 8-10 minutes.
- You must allow these to cool completely on the baking sheet or they will fall apart on you.
