This recipe is so quick, simple and makes an awesome cookie. It's also an easy one for young kids to help out with. You can easily add in some chocolate chips or vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon for different flavor combinations. You could also substitute a different nut butter for the peanut butter.

Ingredients

16 cookies
  1. 1 cuppeanut butter
  2. 1/2 cuprolled oats
  3. 1/2 cupbrown sugar
  4. 1large egg

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix together all the ingredients in a medium bowl with a rubber spatula or a wooden spoon.

  2. 2

    The dough will be very sticky. To make it easier to work with, cover it and place it in the fridge to chill for 20 or so minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.

  4. 4

    Roll dough into balls, about 1 tbsp. of dough per ball, and set onto prepared baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Use a fork to flatten them down. We like to do a criss cross pattern. They won't really spread much in the oven, so it's okay to have them close together.

  6. 6

    Bake for 9-10 minutes. They will still look a bit underbaked, but once cooled will yield a soft, chewy cookie. For a crispy cookie, bake an additional 2-3 minutes. Allow to cool on the pan for 3 minutes, then move them onto a wire rack to cool completely.

  7. 7

    Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
