Gluten Free No Bake Cookies
These easy No Bake Oatmeal Cookies are made with gluten free oats and packed with peanut butter and chocolate chips. A tasty treat with no need to turn on the oven!
Servings: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 60 g unsalted butter (dairy free if needed)
- 75 g brown sugar
- 75 g granulated sugar
- 75 ml milk (dairy free if needed)
- 125 g smooth peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 200 g gluten free oats
- 75 g milk chocolate chips (dairy free if needed)
Instructions
- Add the butter, sugars and milk to a non-stick saucepan and place on a low-medium heat. Keep stirring until it reaches a rolling boil.
- Once it has reached a rolling boil, set a timer for 1 minute and allow the mixture to boil for this time, stirring occasionally. This is SUPER important - if you don't properly boil the caramel then your cookies won't set!
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the peanut butter and vanilla extract. Stir until the peanut butter has melted and you have a smooth liquid.
- Add the gluten free oats to the pan and three-quarters of the chocolate chips. Stir through until completely combined and then leave to stand for 5-10 minutes until it's cool enough to handle.
- Use an ice-cream scoop to take a scoop at a time from the dough, and then roll into a ball using your hands. Gently press down on a lined baking sheet and repeat until you've used all the mixture - it should make around 12 cookies.
- Press the extra chocolate chips into the top of the cookies. Place the baking tray in the fridge and leave to chill for at least an hour before eating.
Notes
- Weighing Scales vs Cups: You can toggle this recipe card to convert the ingredients into cups – I have weighed each item individually to ensure the conversion is accurate as possible. However, I always recommend using weighing scales – these are cheap to buy and much more accurate. And in gluten free baking, a tiny variation can make a huge difference!
