Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

Makes 24

1/2 cup (113 grams) organic salted butter, softened

113 grams (1/2 cup) organic cane sugar

113 grams (1/2 cup) organic dark brown sugar

1 teaspoon organic vanilla extract

142 grams (1/2 cup) organic peanut butter

2 organic large eggs

1 organic large egg yolk

191 grams (1 1/2 cups) organic all purpose flour

74 grams (3/4 cup) rolled oats

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

142 grams (3/4 cup) organic semi sweet chocolate chips

Method Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, add the butter, cane sugar, dark brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix on low until combined and there are no butter chunks.

Add the peanut butter, eggs, and egg yolk and mix for just 3 to 4 rotations of the mixer, do not over mix.

In a separate bowl, add the flour, oats, baking powder, and sea salt and whisk together. Add to the butter mixture and mix on low until almost combined, you will still see bits of flour. Add the chocolate chips and mix on low until combined.

Using your hands, form the dough into 24 balls and place them on the prepared cookie sheets, spacing at least 1 inch apart. Flatten slightly so they look like a disk and are about 2 inches in diameter.

Bake for 11 minutes or until set and dry. Let cool completely on the cookie sheet.

Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

Gluten Free – Use gluten free oats. Replace the organic all purpose flour with 205 grams (1 1/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon) organic gluten free flour blend.

High Altitude – Bake at 375°F for 8 minutes or until set and dry.
