Main Ingredients
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 3 tablespoons oat flour (or blended oats)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey, peanut butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This creates the flavorful base of the cookie dough.
- Incorporate Oat Flour: Stir in the oat flour gradually until it is fully incorporated, thickening the mixture to resemble cookie dough consistency.
- Add Mix-ins: Gently fold in mini chocolate chips and sprinkles if using, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
- Chill & Serve: For a firmer, scoopable texture, refrigerate the cookie dough for 15 minutes before serving. This step is optional but recommended for the best experience.
- Enjoy: Eat directly from the spoon as a healthy snack or scoop into bowls to serve. The dough is safe to eat raw as it contains no eggs or raw flour.
