Join the discussionI am assuming that is supposed to say “old fashioned rolled oats” in the ingredients?
Yes Helena, some place they’re just old fashioned oats, others they are rolled oats.
Can you use natural peanut butter with this recipe?
Stella – I haven’t tried it with natural – but I am sure it would work. If you experiment – please let us know how it turns out!
I made these today with honey………..oh my, they are good. I have eaten a bunch already. Glad I made a double batch. 😉
Where do you find agave nectar?
Rosalyn – I find it in the baking section at my local grocery store. May also be in with syrups?
could you use quick oats with this?
Yes!
Just made these -yummy! And so easy. I got about 12. Thanks for the recipe!
I’ve got to brag on these cookies! They are my personal favorite! I’ve made them several times now! I use white chocolate chips and whatever cereal I happen to have on hand. Awesome! Now, I’m a big fan of this site, I must admit. See, I’ve been using OAMM for almost two years now. I LOVE y’all! I’ve been a single mom since last summer and this website had helped me so much with my grocery budget ($50/week)! I have plenty to feed my family and always enough to gift a few meals a month. It’s kinda become our little family outreach ministry. I stumbled on this site when I was looking for a new baby gift for my best friend. I used the site (before memberships) to create a month of meals to gift her and her hubby for when the baby came. She ended up really sick just before the Emily was born, then had to deliver via c-section (in January in Delaware). The meals were such a blessing to her new little family during a rough time. I just want to tell y’all thank you for all you do! We have a home business, a super tight budget, and I homeschool my oldest and I don’t think we would be nearly as successful without OAMM on our side. I’m so grateful God brought me to your site when He did! I tell all my friends and family about OAMC and frequently share the recipe links. Thank you again :). Oh, and these cookies ROCK! 😉
Kimberly! Way to make us tear up at the end of the day. It’s stories like yours that keep us going on our hardest days! We appreciate you as a member and part of our community. So happy to be a part of your amazing ministry.
I just made these…well I attempted to, anyway. They would not stick together enough to make balls. I used coconut oil instead of butter, but I wouldn’t think that would cause any problem.
Any suggestions?
Hi Janell, I wonder if the coconut oil was just a little too wet and oily if you did an even swap with the butter. I think next time I would do just 1 Tablespoon of coconut oil and maybe even up the dry ingredients a little to see if that helps.
