Ingredients
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
¼ cup maple syrup
¾ cup oat flour
¼ cup natural peanut butter
pinch pinch of fine-grain sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Add the peanut butter to the bowl and stir until fully incorporated with the cocoa mixture.
Fold in the oat flour until completely combined, ensuring no dry pockets remain. The mixture should be thick and moldable.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a rounded spoon or small cookie scoop, drop portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill for about 1 hour, until the cookies are completely firm to the touch.
Once frozen, transfer the cookies to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for longer storage.
Comments
Every ingredient is a staple at any major Charlotte chain—oat flour and cocoa powder are standard pantry items at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, and ALDI, and peanut butter costs under two dollars at any of them. The stated 65 minutes is honest but front-loaded by chilling time; actual hands-on prep is closer to 15 minutes, which means a weeknight is feasible. Cost per serving runs around 35–40 cents, driven by the oat flour and coconut oil rather than any one budget-buster. The recipe makes 24 cookies, reheats well, and is forgiving enough for a kitchen helper, though the chilling step requires planning ahead rather than spontaneous assembly.
