Home-tried Peanut Butter Cookies originated in the United States and date back to the 1910s
Ingredients
- Β½ cup smooth peanut butter, but chunky will be awesome. I only had smooth available.
- Β½ cup Demerara sugar
- 1 XL egg
- 1ΒΌ cups Steel-cut oats
- ΒΎ teaspoon baking soda
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 350Β°F.
- In a small bowl, use an electric mixer to cream peanut butter and brown sugar until fluffy.
- Beat in the egg.
- Add oats and baking soda to creamed mixture, and mix well.
- Use your hands to make a ball, itβs rather crumbly, but do not worry, just knead it and it will eventually form a ball.
- Line baking sheet withΒ parchment paper.
- Roll dough into 2-inch balls, and press to flatten on the cookie sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies turn slightly brown.
- Cool cookies on a rack, and store them in an airtight container.
