Description

These no-bake salted caramel cookies are chewy, sweet, and perfectly finished with a touch of flaky sea salt. Made with oats, SunButter, and maple syrup, they're an easy and customizable treat that doesn’t require an oven.


Ingredients

  • ½ cup sugar-free white chocolate chips (or butterscotch baking chips)
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil
  • 2⁄3 cup SunButter (no‑sugar‑added)
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • 1½ cups rolled oats
  • ¼ cup unsweetened coconut (optional)
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. In a double boiler over gentle heat, melt the white chocolate chips with coconut oil while stirring steadily.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in SunButter, maple syrup, vanilla, and sea salt.
  4. Add oats and coconut, stirring until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Scoop tablespoon-sized mounds onto the tray (12–18 cookies, depending on size).
  6. Sprinkle each mound with flaky sea salt.
  7. Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until the cookies are firm.

Notes

  • Use certified gluten-free oats for a gluten-free version.
  • Swap SunButter with almond or cashew butter if preferred.
  • Try mix-ins like mini chocolate chips, chopped pecans, or freeze-dried raspberries for variety.
  • Store at room temperature for 5 days, in the fridge for 3 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized portions.
