FLOURLESS PEANUT BUTTER OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES


~ The Baker Mama

1/2 c. unsalted butter, softened
1 c. creamy peanut butter
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 t. vanilla
3 c. old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 c. chopped walnuts
1 c. dark chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheet or line with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, beat butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla, then beat until smooth. Mix in oats and baking soda until just combined. Stir in walnuts and chocolate chips.

Using a one ounce cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop two tablespoon sized portions onto greased or lined cookie sheet. Slightly flatten each one ounce/two tablespoon scoop of dough with the palm of your hand.

Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for five minutes on baking sheet before transferring to cooling rack to cool completely.

Makes 20 large cookies.

Notes: We use two tablespoon portions and get over 30 cookies, and that's without adding nuts. If you'd like to try a similar cookie that has flour in it, check out this recipe.
