Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter, smooth
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients: rolled oats, flour, baking soda and salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the melted butter and brown sugar and whisk to combine. Then add the egg, peanut butter and vanilla extract and whisk again until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and, using a spatula or a spoon, mix until well incorporated.
- Portion the dough into 1 tablespoon-sized balls, using a scoop or your hands, place them to the baking sheet, leaving 2″ between them, and flatten them gently.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and allow to cook for 10-12 minutes until the edges are slightly golden and the centre still looks soft.
- Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet.
- Once cooled, the cookies can be served immediately, stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
