Ingredients
1 ½ cup old fashioned whole rolled oats
½ cup raisins or dried cherries or dried cranberries
½ cup unsalted peanuts or cashews
⅓ cup shredded coconut unsweetened or sweetened
1 cup natural creamy peanut butter no sugar added
⅓ cup + 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Add oats, raisins, peanuts, and coconut to a food processor and pulse a few times to break up the ingredients a bit, but not completely.
Whisk together the peanut butter, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Add in the dry mixture and stir until well combined. Stir in the mini chocolate chips. Refrigerate the mixture for 20 minutes.
Use a 2 tbsp cookie dough scoop to portion out the oatmeal dough, then use your hands to roll each portion into a ball. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container between layers of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
