Gluten-Free, Old School, No Bake Nut Butter and Oat Cookies
Makes two dozen drop cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons butter
4 Tablespoons milk
1 1/2 cups gluten free rolled oats
1/3 cup nut butter (I used peanut butter in these)
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/3 cup crushed walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
-
Put oats, nut butter, cinnamon and walnuts in a heat resistant medium bowl. Set aside.
- Put butter, milk and sugar into a small saucepan. Melt together
over medium-high heat while stirring frequently to avoid burning the
sugar. Once the ingredients are all melted, bring to a boil and allow
to boil for one minute.
-
Pour the boiling liquids over the oat mixture.
-
Add the vanilla extract.
-
Stir very well. Make sure all of the oats, etc have been coated evenly.
-
Set aside for 5 minutes to allow to cool slightly.
- Drop by the tablespoon on to parchment paper and allow to cool
completely. The cookies will dry and set within 30 minutes or so,
depending on your house temperature.
-
Store in an airtight container, or eat off the counter with reckless abandon for your dental health.
Happy cookie eating!
