Preparation
- Combine the first three ingredients in a saucepan and heat gently.
- If you are using raw honey, be careful to only heat until the coconut oil melts and the peanut butter softens.
- Then add the vanilla, oats, and cocoa and mix well.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto a tray and let cool.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- And there you go, they're ready to bring in your lunches :)

Notes :
- If you want your cookies to be sweeter, you can use 3/4 cup of honey or maple syrup instead of 1/3 cup.
- For peanut allergies, you can replace peanut butter with any other nut butter. It's particularly good with almond butter!
- You can use regular peanut butter, but this will make your cookies low sugar instead of sugar-free.
