Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, and mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Sprinkle in the baking soda and salt, and mix to combine.
Stir in the oats until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips, raisins, and walnuts (if using) until they are well mixed into the cookie dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to form disk-shaped cookies.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set at the edges and lightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
