Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats

  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder

  • ⅛ tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ¼ tsp cinnamon

  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ cup honey

  • Heaping ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.

  2. Combine the wet ingredients together in a separate bowl, then add to the dry ingredient mixture and stir.

  3. Fold in the chocolate chips.

  4. Shape into balls and smush lightly to form a cookie shape.

  5. Bake for 9–10 minutes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. 


I might recommend trying this recipe with 2 eggs — I found that the dough wanted to stick to my hands more than to itself, even after being cooked. Potentially flour hands between rolling cookie dough balls. Or, just use a spoon to scrape out an appropriately-sized lump, drop onto the cookie sheet, and smush it around until it vaguely resembles a cookie shape. Also, I used WAY more than ½ cup of chocolate chips and it turned out incredible.

These oatmeal cookies are perfectly soft and sweet. Hands-down the best oatmeal cookies, I’ve ever eaten!
