Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, to the wet mixture, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. If using chocolate chips, stir them in at this point.
Using a 1/3 cup measuring cup or a large cookie scoop, portion the dough into large balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 3 inches between each cookie.
Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with your palm to help them spread evenly while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your giant oats and peanut butter cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite drink!
