These easy no-bake cookies are oh so easy and oh so yummy! With just a handful of common ingredients, these cookies mix together quickly and make great lunchbox snacks.
Ready in minutes, these cookies are like candy and have a similar texture to peanut butter fudge. Delicious on their own, I can imagine crumbling one into some nonfat Greek yogurt and topping with a handful of fresh berries for a simple parfait.

How to Make No-Bake Peanut Butter Oat Cookies Step by Step
Step 1: Gather and prepare all ingredients.
Step 2: Line a cookie sheet with silpat (affiliate link) silicone liner or parchment paper and set aside.
Step 3: Stir together the first five ingredients (brown sugar, sweetener, butter, milk and peanut butter) in a medium saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and boil for one minute, stirring as needed to avoid scorching.
Step 4: Remove pan from the heat and mix in vanilla and oats, stirring with a wooden spoon (affiliate link) until oats are completely coated.
Step 5: Using a tablespoon measure for each cookie, drop batter onto prepared cookie sheet.
Step 6: Place cookies in refrigerator for about 20 minutes, or until firm.
Step 7: Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container.
Recipe Notes, Variations & Substitutions
I like Lankato Monkfruit sweetener, but feel free to substitute your favorite zero calorie sweetener—Splenda, Swerve, etc.
For a double dose of peanut butter, try stirring in some peanut butter chips with the oats and vanilla. Or mini chocolate chips for a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie bite. (Be sure to adjust your WW Points with any additions.)
Serving Suggestions
Enjoy these cookies plain or crumbled over your favorite low-fat ice cream or frozen yogurt.
You could also make a simple parfait by crumbling a cookie and then layering it with some nonfat Greek yogurt and fresh berries. A delicious summertime dessert!
