The Healthy Recipe For No-Bake Cookies – You Won’t Even Notice A Difference!

Healthy Sugar-Free Cookies: No-Bake Chocolate Oat Cookies

Despite even the best-intentioned plans to stay on the straight and narrow when it comes to your health, sometimes those sugar-filled treats still have a way of sneaking into your day. We wanted to come up with a dessert that we could indulge in without having to feel badly about it and without sacrificing the work we’ve already put in, so we came up with these cookies. Not unlike our first batch of no-bake chocolate oat cookies, these oat cookies are amazingly easy and delicious – but they’re way better for us because they have no added sugar! Using natural peanut butter (we couldn’t resist throwing that in there), coconut oil and honey, we’re able to get great flavor without giving ourselves a cavity – hurray for healthier dessert!
