MDBD - Honey, Peanut Butter, & Coconut Cookies

Last week's MDBD was Honey, Peanut Butter, & Coconut Cookies, which was a recipe we found at My Happy Place.

Honey, Peanut Butter, & Coconut Cookies

Our Ingredients
 INGREDIENTS
3/4 c. creamy peanut butter
6 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. vanilla 
1 c. oat flour (I just used regular)
1 tsp. baking soda
1/3 c. desiccated coconut flakes

Look at that cute face :)
 INSTRUCTIONS
 Preheat oven to 350ºF
 Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside
 In a large bowl, whisk peanut butter, honey, and vanilla until smooth 
Add oat flour and baking soda
Stir until combined
Scoop dough into balls and roll in coconut flakes
Place on baking sheet and press down with a fork, forming a criss-cross pattern
 Bake for 5-10 minutes or until golden brown

I feel like these cookies had potential. However, the texture was really off. It was like they turned to powder as soon as they hit your mouth. Then they stuck to the roof of your mouth and you needed a drink to swallow them down. They only made 14 cookies and I ended up throwing away a good portion (I wouldn't even let Scott take them to work). Zoey liked them though, and she thought the "peanut butter and jelly" cookie I made for her was pretty cool.
