Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 cup peanut butter1
- 1 1/4 cups brown sugar² packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup milk³
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour4
- 1/3 cup whole-wheat flour
- 1/3 cup dry milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup chopped dried cranberries5
- 1/2 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats or with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and vanilla together on high speed until well-combined.
- Mix in the eggs and milk, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the flours, dried milk, cinnamon, and salt. Mix just until the dough comes together.
- Stir in the oats, cranberries, chocolate chips, and nuts just until incorporated.
- Scoop 1/4 cups of batter and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Slightly flatten the scoops of dough. The don't won't spread much as it bakes.
- Bake for 16-22 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned. Do not overbake the cookies or they will be dry.
Notes
- Just regular peanut butter. I don't recommend using natural peanut butter in this recipe.
- The cookies aren't very sweet. If you want a sweeter cookie, increase the sugar to 1 and 1/2 cups.
- Any milk from skim to whole milk will work.
- Be sure to properly measure thhe flours. Stir or sift the flour to break it up. Then lightly spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level off.
- The cranberries, chocolate chips, and nuts can all be substituted with other mix-ins such as coconut, white chocolate chips, other types of dried fruit, and other chopped nuts.
