Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup butter , room temperature
- 1 cup peanut butter , smooth
- ¾ cup light brown sugar , packed
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs , room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups rolled oats , old-fashioned
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and ground cinnamon in a bowl.
- Separately, in a large bowl cream the butter and peanut butter until smooth and fluffy. Pour in the granulated sugar and brown sugar, then mix well to combine, for about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, then mix again to incorporate. Make sure you scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix again.
- Combine the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and beat on low speed until just about combined.
- Place the dough into plastic wrap, then refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
- Pre-heat the oven to 350F (180C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon to scoop up equal balls of dough onto the baking tray. Each cookie should be about 2 tablespoons of dough. Leave enough space between the cookies as they will spread in the oven. Sprinkle more oats or crushed peanuts on top for decoration.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown in color. Once baked, let the cookies rest for 5 minutes before carefully transferring them onto a cooling rack.
