Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.25 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Rolled oats
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy. This should take about 2–3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Step 3
Mix in the peanut butter until fully incorporated, then add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 4
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 7
Fold in the rolled oats until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 8
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 9
Use the back of a fork to gently flatten each cookie and create a crisscross pattern on top.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Step 12
Enjoy these warm, chewy cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
