- 1 cup Crunchy or creamy peanut butter regular or natural
- 2 tbsp Honey agave for vegan
- 1/4 cup Brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla
- 1 large Egg or egg substitute like aquafaba
- 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp Old fashioned oats gluten-free if needed
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened coconut
- 1/8 tsp Salt optional if peanut butter has salt as an ingredient
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/4 cup Semi-sweet mini chocolate chips Allergy-friendly if needed **see notes
- 1/3-1/2 cup Mini M&Ms Allergy-friendly if needed **see notes
Preheat oven to 350 and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner.
In a large mixing bowl add peanut butter, honey, and brown sugar. Mix well.
Add vanilla and egg or egg substitute. Mix well.
Stir in oats, salt, baking soda, and coconut. Mix well.
Fold in the chocolate chips and about 1/4 cup of the candies.
Form balls with the dough pressing firmly because it falls apart easily.
Place dough balls on the prepared cookie sheet and gently press down to slightly flatten.
Add a couple more of the M&Ms on top and bake for about 8 minutes. Times may vary.
Let cookies cool before moving to a cooling rack. They are fragile but delicious!
