Welcome to one of my favorite flashback recipes ever: Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies! “But what’s a flashback recipe??” you say… Well, last year, I decided to bring back some old BB favorites from the archives with new photos, new recipe tips and a general refresh.

‘Cuz who doesn’t need that, ya know?

This flashback recipe is an oldie, but a goodie! (I mean, when is an oldie not a goodie, right? Okaaaaay, fine, maybe we didn’t need to bring back shoulder pads and two foot high hairsprayed bangs.) Anywho…

Do you love peanut butter? How about coconut? And what about oatmeal cookies? Well, when you put them all together, you get something really, truly great. I developed this vegan + gluten free peanut butter coconut oatmeal cookies recipe back when I decided I needed a little something of everything in one easy vegan cookie.

Flashback: Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

Are you game? Let’s throw it all the way back to February 2017 and make all the delicious combo peanut butter cookie + oatmeal cookies + coconut cookies in ONE!

How Do these Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies TASTE?

Glad you asked! The taste of these peanut butter coconut oatmeal cookies is: rich, peanut butter-y, sweet-but-not-too-sweet, with chewy, delicious oats and a pop of coconut flavor. They’re kind of like my Gluten Free Soft Peanut Butter Cookies + my 3 Ingredient No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies and my Ultimate Chewy Paleo Coconut Cookies put together. Side note: if you’re craving even more coconut goodness, try my Gluten Free Coconut Macaroons recipe and my 5 Ingredient Vegan Coconut Chocolate Bars.

These cookies are deliciously dense, with a soft bit of chew and packed with great texture in the form of gluten free oats, unsweetened coconut chips and soul-satisfying peanut butter. Oh YUM.

Are these Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies Vegan? Gluten Free? Dairy-Free? Refined Sugar Free?

Rest assured, just like you’ve come to expect from all Beaming Baker recipes, these peanut butter coconut oatmeal cookies are…

  • Vegan
  • Dairy-Free
  • Gluten Free
  • Refined Sugar-Free
  • Plant-Based
  • Made from Whole Ingredients

Can I Freeze these Vegan Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies?

Yes! While one of the things I love about these coconut peanut butter oatmeal cookies is that they stay fresh and yummy for 2 weeks, you can still freeze ‘em! To Freeze: cool cookies completely, then store in an airtight, freezer-friendly container for 1-2 months. Allow to thaw for 10-30 minutes before enjoying! Looking for an even easier, no bake recipe? Try these 3 Ingredient No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookie Cups (Healthy, Vegan, GF).

Tools for the Best Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

  • Medium Cookie Scoop: my favorite scoop of all time. And that’s coming from someone who’s made over 100 cookies. Okay, wait, did I say a mere 100 cookies? I meant 1,000s upon 1,000s of cookies! How many times do you think a crappy cookie scoop has broken on me, mid-bake? So. Many. Times. These cookie scoops never fail and are the gold standard (for me) in cookie bake-a-thons.
  • Raw Coconut Chips: these coconut chips are the best! Literally, you can eat them as a snack, they’re that good. I love using these raw coconut chips in my recipes because they’re plant-based, made without any added ingredients, and simply add a pop of delicious, pure coconut taste to any recipe.
  • Unblanched Almond Meal: different from blanched almond flour, almond meal has a heavier, denser texture that makes these peanut butter coconut oatmeal cookies oh-so-satisfying. Leave home without it? No way, sir! (And by “home”, I mean the kitchen, o ‘course!)
  • Coconut Sugar: searching for a refined sugar-free sweetener for your gluten free vegan plant-based treats? This is it folks! I love that this coconut sugar adds such a wonderful, warm caramel-y taste to vegan cookies without having to add in refined sugar. Yes!!

What do you think about my flashback recipes? Are you game for more, or hoping one specific one will come back with lots of extra tips? Let me know in the comments below! I can’t wait to hear what you think of this recipe. 🙂 Thank you so much for stopping by and joining in these baking adventures with me. ‘Til the next one…

Sending you all my love and maybe even a dove, xo Demeter ❤️

Description

Peanut Butter Coconut Oatmeal Cookies (Vegan, Gluten Free): an easy recipe for deliciously thick, chewy peanut butter cookies bursting with coconut and oats. Refined Sugar-Free, Clean Ingredients, Dairy-Free.


Scale

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups gluten free rolled oats
  • ½ cup gluten free oat flour – if using homemade oat flour, make sure it’s very finely ground (not coarse)*
  • ½ cup unblanched almond meal
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes or raw coconut chips
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural, unsalted creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons golden ground flaxseed + 6 tablespoons warm water, whisked together, set for 15 mins)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Optional Topping

  • 2 tablespoons coconut and gluten free rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: oats, oat flour, almond meal, coconut, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients: peanut butter, coconut oil, sugar, maple syrup, flax eggs and vanilla.
  4. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture. Using a rubber spatula, stir and fold until well incorporated.
  5. Using a small or medium cookie scoop, scoop and drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly apart. Using a fork, flatten cookies to desired thickness—they won’t spread much while baking. Optionally, press coconut flakes and oats onto the tops of each cookie.
  6. Bake for 10-14 minutes. Mine took 12 minutes. Place baking sheet onto cooling rack. Allow cookies to cool on sheet for 10 minutes. Using a heatproof spatula, lift and transfer cookies directly onto the cooling rack, cooling completely before storing. Enjoy! Storing instructions below.

    I’m planning on making these today. Do u think I would be able to substitute another flour for the oat flour? Spelt, sprouted whole wheat? Also would avocado oil work in place of coconut oil?
    Thanks.
    I love all your recipes!

      Hi Jody, some sources say that spelt flour is a suitable substitute for oat flour, at a 1:1 ratio. I haven’t tried it myself, so I can’t say for sure. Let me know how it turns out if you do. Avocado oil should be fine. Thanks so much for your kind words! 🙂

    As I read through your post it almost brought me to tears…
    I was thinking to myself that I am now where you were…
    Difficultt times, ends not meeting, sadness all around but only faith to keep going and cooking keeps me lit up…
    The worst enemy we have is ourselves… we help ourselves stay where we are and never take a step…
    Perhaps your story and a bit of courage will help me change my attitude towards ME and my passion for making food… perhaps…
    I will keep you posted and let you know how it goes…
    Thanks once again….

    P.S.
    I will rate the recipe once I try it …
    I have plenty of outs and coconut flour in my pantry and was thinking what to do with them… although I am not vegan but this sound like a recipe from pure indulgence…

      Hi Haytham, I am so sorry to hear that you are now where I was years ago. I must admit, I still struggle with feelings of low self worth and self doubt. The thing I always say is, just try. Just take the first step in whatever it is your dream is. Then take another step. You might not feel sure of yourself, but keep trying until you do. There are days that self doubt & sadness creep in and threaten to take over, but keep going and eventually the sun will come out. Here is me sending you all the faith, a bunch of hugs & lots of love & positivity. You GOT THIS!! Please do keep me posted. I’m rooting for you! ❤️

I used eggs instead of flax seed eggs and I added chocolate chips to half the batter. I was delightfully surprised to find that I love them equally – with and without the chocolate chips. I always know I am going to enjoy your recipes and I appreciate that you generously post them. Much gratitude!!!

    Made them going the extra length of grinding oats and almonds. But they are worth it all. FWIW, I generally halve the amount of sweeteners, but found the amounts in this recipe to be right on.

I would never have imagined putting peanut butter and coconut together but it works SO well! I even convinced a few friends of mine who didn’t care for gluten free cookies to try some and they were in LOVE!Thank you! My only problem with the recipe was that it didn’t make as many as I expected even though I followed the recipe exactly.

    This recipe looks so delicious, but I can’t have almonds or peanuts, so I changed it so I could make it. Here are my adjustments:

    Seriously, these were without a doubt the BEST cookies I’ve ever had!

    1. Substitute peanut butter for sunflower butter
    2. Omit almond meal
    3. Use 3/4 c of oat flour with 3-4 tablespoons of quinoa
    4. Use 2/3 c raw cane sugar instead of coconut sugar (it’s what I had on hand)
    5. Use only 2 tablespoons of maple syrup
    6. Use ground chia instead of ground flaxseed for the “eggs”

    Has anyone tried these with less sugar or possibly with dates? I love sugar but sugar doesn’t feel the same way. I imagine cutting it out would drastically change the integrity of the cookie but I’m hopeful that you might have a helpful hint!

      I have followed many of the recipes here substituting in date sugar (which is just dried ground dates) and also date syrup in place of maple syrup with no problem.

    Hi, i love these cookies and so do all my friends. I was wondering if its possible to freeze them after baking? Or if anyone else has any experience in freezing and eating at a later time.

    Thanks in advance!

      That’s awesome! I haven’t frozen these before, but I have frozen similar recipes. As long as you cool them completely, then pack them in an airtight, freezer-friendly container and eat them within 1-2 months, they should be fine. 🙂 It’s my pleasure! Enjoy. xo

    Wondering if i could use coconut flour in place of the almond meal for these cookies.

      April 21, 2017 at 12:55 pm

      Hi Laurie! I wouldn’t recommend it–coconut flour is extremely absorbent, way more than almond meal. You can try subbing the almond meal for an equal amount of GF oat flour. You might need to experiment a bit to get the right texture. Happy baking! 🙂

      Hi Jennifer! I’ve never tried substituting the almond meal with anything else. However, you could try subbing it with an equal amount of GF oat flour. You might need to experiment a bit to get the right texture. Can’t wait to hear how it turns out! 🙂

    Hello! These look amazing! I wanted to ask though, do you think these would still work without the maple syrup? Or is there anything I could sub instead? Thank you!

      Hi Samantha! Thank you. 🙂 You can substitute the maple syrup with equal amounts of brown rice syrup or honey (for a non-vegan option). Hope this helps! Enjoy. 🙂

    First of all HAPPY ONE YEAR AND ONE MONTH BLOG-IVERSARY! You know I am SO proud of you and sincerely could not be more thrilled at your success! I’m so glad you bit the bullet and started blogging, because I honestly could NOT imagine my life without you as my friend. And I have our blogs to thank for that! Just when I think we couldn’t possibly have more in common, I find out we do! We both started our blog after very dark periods in our lives and we both avoided even attempting to blog out of fear. And we both are nuts. Ha, but that I already knew. 🙂 I’m so so so SO happy for you and how big Beaming Baker Dot Com has become. You are nothing short of amazing, and your blog is THE JAM. And I love you to pieces, girlfriend! So these cookies. I love that you chose to celebrate this day by bringing it back to the beginning! These cookies look EPIC and they totally needed another day in the sun! You know I love oatmeal cookies, and I live for coconut and peanut butter, so these are a trifecta of deliciousness, D! I think I need about a dozen of these right now… with a glass of almond milk AND a side of coffee. Because why the heck not, right?! Pinned of course! Cheers, mi-lady – to your continued success and delicious recipes! XOXO
