Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Chocolate Oat Cookies

In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, chocolate chips, nut butter, and honey or maple syrup. Mix until dough forms.
Shape the dough into small balls or patties, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place on a lined baking sheet.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set.
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
