Gluten-Free Monster Cookies
Monster cookies are known for their peanut butter and amazing trail-mix mix-ins. Basically put everything in that ya got! The original recipe makes 100 cookies, but I've cut it down here.
Ingredients
- 1 cup melted butter, coconut oil, or olive oil
- 3 ½ cups peanut butter, almond butter, or sunflower seed butter
- 1 cup honey
- 7 large eggs
- 5 teaspoons baking soda
- 9 cups rolled oats
- 4 cups mixed chocolate, nuts, and dried fruit
Instructions
- Preheat over to 350F.
- Mix butter, peanut butter, honey, eggs, and baking soda together. Add in rolled oats and mixed chocolate/nuts of choice. Let sit for 15 minutes for the oats to soak up some moisture.
- Scoop ¼ cup scoops on parchment lined or greased sheets. It will make 4 pans full, but I do it in 2 rounds. Flatten with a fork or your hand, and bake 8-10 minutes, until just starting to brown.
- Let cool 10 minutes before you take off the pan and move to a rack, or leave on the pan to cool all the way if you have the pan space.
Notes
- These freeze so well, and I love having a container stashed in the freezer to pull out for a filling snack!
- If you've never baked with sunflower seed butter, be aware that it has a tendency to turn baked goods green. Baking soda usually counteracts that so these should be ok, but I felt I had to warn you.
