Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola Cookies

Granola Cookies with dark chocolate and peanut butter are healthy option for anytime of the day- breakfast, snack, but very satisfying dessert, too!

These granola cookies are mixture of ground rolled oats and peanuts, sweetened with brown sugar. Instead of egg, butter and milk, I used with flaxseed egg, coconut oil and almond milk. I wanted to make a healthier base for delicious peanut butter filling.

The mixture is really simple to make, just pulse everything in a blender or a food processor. Then press a heaping tablespoon of mixture in each cup of cupcake pan and bake for 13- 15 minutes.

How to Assemble These Easy Granola Cookies

When granola cookies are baked, invert them and press the center to make the dent for filling. For filling you’ll need melted peanut butter and some chopped peanuts to sprinkle on top.

But that’s not all. These delicious granola cookies filled with peanut butter are dipped in melted dark chocolate, too! What goes better together than peanut butter and chocolate?

Peanut butter and chocolate are the best ever flavor combo! But, decadence of peanut butter combined with chocolate and the wholesome goodness of whole grain oats and peanuts gives you a new kind of indulgence.

However, who can resist this mouthwatering filling and crisp granola, plus there is a layer of chocolate?! There is whole lotta goodness all in one little Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola Cookies.

  • ¾ cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¾ teaspoon coconut oil

Filling:

  • ¾ cup peanut butter

  • 2–3 Tablespoons chopped peanuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and place the rack in the center position. Grease silicon cupcake mold and set aside. If you don’t have silicon mold you can use regular cupcake pan, just greass it well..

  8. Let the cookies cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert them on a sheet of parchment paper and press the center with a bottom of small glass or measuring spoon, to make the dent for the filling. Before you press the cookies, hold the edges with your fingers to prevent cracking and falling apart of the cookies. Let them cool completely.
