Start by melting the coconut oil (or butter) in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix well until everything is smooth and fully incorporated.
To the wet mixture, add in the cocoa powder, quick oats, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until all the ingredients are well combined, and the oats are evenly coated.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the mixture onto a lined baking sheet or plate. You can shape them into balls or flatten them into cookie shapes, depending on your preference.
Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up. This step is crucial as it helps the cookies hold their shape.
Once firm, your 6-Ingredient No-Bake Cookies are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
