Updated May 30, 2020 I was in the mood to bake this week, big surprise, right? Well, I will be honest, I was really in the mood to eat cookies, sure the baking part is fun, but the eating part is the BEST part. You can’t beat a batch of freshly baked cookies. I was craving cookies like mad so I baked a batch of my favorite Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies. They are peanut butter cookie perfection! The cookies are soft, chewy, and LOADED with peanut butter flavor. Peanut butter fans, you are going to LOVE these cookies! They are peanut butter cookie perfection!
Favorite Cookies
I could eat an entire batch of these cookies because they are so delicious and they are kind of healthy because of the peanut butter and oats, right? I will keep telling myself that:) I love these cookies because I always have the ingredients on hand. You don’t need any special ingredients, but that doesn’t mean the cookies aren’t special, they are VERY special. Every tine I make these cookies they get rave reviews by family and friends. They are just a REALLY good cookie, a classic!
Tips
Here are a few tips that will guarantee cookie success every single time!
Use old fashioned oats, not quick oats for this recipe.Don’t skip the cinnamon, it gives the cookies an extra hint of deliciousness.For this recipe, I don’t use natural peanut butter. JIF or Skippy or a similar brand works best. I use creamy peanut butter, but chunky would be good too.I love the simplicity of these cookies but feel free to add in chocolate chips if you wish.Don’t over bake the cookies. Remove from the oven when the edges are set but the middles are still soft. They will finish baking on the baking sheet. You want them to be soft and chewy.These cookies will keep in an airtight container on the counter for up to 4 days. These cookies also freeze well. Place cooled cookies in a freezer bag or container and freezer for up to one month. They are good frozen or you can thaw them before eating.
The next time you need a cookie fix, make a batch of Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies. These simple cookies are always a winner!
