Mini No-Bake Pecan & Peanut Butter Cookies

Mini No-Bake Pecan & Peanut Butter Cookies | low carb, gluten free, grain free healthy cookies are the perfect snack or easy dessert!

I love no-bake cookie recipes. Not only does it mean I can spoon the dough into my mouth with no worry (not that it would otherwise stop me anyways) but sometimes I’m honestly not in the mood to turn my oven on and wait for the cookies to bake, then cool, THEN eat them. Ain’t nobody got time for that!

I made them into mini-versions, but you could try and make them bigger if you wanted. They’re nice to have post-dinner or lunch as a treat, and the mini versions do allow for some portion control – not that I’m particularly good at that, buut it’s nice to have the option to have just one small one!

These little cookies are:

  • glutenfree
  • vegan if you use the coconut oil and pea protein
  • low carb
  • fat bomb because #FatsAreFriends
  • no added sugar

If you do want a baked cookie I recently posted my almond flour low carb choc chip cookies which are also divine.
