Healthy Recipe: Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Serves 24
INGREDIENTS
- ⅔ cup unsalted natural creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Heaping ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 2½ cups whole rolled oats
- ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
PREPARATION
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt until smooth. Add the oats and chocolate chips and stir until combined. Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the dough. Use your hands to form into balls and place on the baking sheet, then flatten into disks with your fingers (the disks will become more cohesive as they chill).
3. Chill overnight to allow the cookies to firm up.

Modern eating habits, busy schedules, and reduced outdoor time all contribute to nutrient gaps. The good news is that small, consistent changes can make a meaningful difference.
Breathing is a built‑in stress‑management system that can be accessed anytime, anywhere.
When life becomes busy or overwhelming, breathing patterns often shift without us noticing—becoming shallow, fast, or irregular. This signals the body to stay alert, keeping the nervous system in a heightened state.
Many people grew up with fitness messages focused on intensity, discipline, and “earning” food. Over time, this can create an unhealthy relationship with exercise—one driven by guilt or pressure rather than enjoyment.

This beef mince and pumpkin protein dinner bake ticks all the nutritious (and delicious) boxes for a midweek dinner. It’s a bowl of comfort that’s brimming with flavour. A lighter, brighter lasagne, this bake can also be made gluten free if you use gluten-free lasagne sheets.
