FLOURLESS PEANUT BUTTER OATMEAL COOKIES



Flourless Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies image

Only 7 simple ingredients in these soft & chewy flourless peanut butter oatmeal cookies.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Cookies

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2/3 cup (58g) old-fashioned rolled oats*
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg
1 cup (250g) peanut butter at room temperature or cold*
6 Tablespoons (90g) packed light brown sugar*
1/2 cup (90g) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss the oats, cinnamon, and baking soda together. Set aside. In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Mix in the peanut butter and brown sugar with a large rubber spatula until combined. Pour in the dry ingredients and slowly mix until everything is combined. Depending how thick and/or cold your peanut butter is, you'll have to use some arm muscles. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Chill the cookie dough for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Scoop the dough, about 1.5 Tablespoons each, onto prepared baking sheet. Bake two batches - 7 cookies on each baking sheet. Gently press down on the dough mounds with the back of a spoon to slightly flatten as pictured in this recipe. If you find the cookie dough balls are oily-looking from your peanut butter, blot each with a paper towel.
  • Bake for 9-10 minutes. The cookies will look very soft and underbaked, but that's ok. For crispier cookies, bake for up to 11-12 minutes. Sometimes I press a couple more chocolate chips into the tops of each cookie immediately after coming out of the oven. This is optional and only for looks!
  • Allow the cookies to cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies stay fresh stored covered at room temperature for up to 7 days, if they last that long!
