Flourless Oatmeal Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Flourless Oatmeal Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chewy meringue-like peanut butter chocolate chip cookies without flour for butter.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup oatmeal (gluten free if desired)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup natural peanut butter
  • 2/3 cups dark brown sugar
  • 2 eggs (large)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract (don't hold back!)
  • 2/3 cups chocolate chips

Note

Adapted from Monique's recipe at Ambitious Kitchen.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

In small bowl, mix together the oats and baking soda; set aside.

In a large bowl, beat peanut butter, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth, about 3 minutes. Mix in dry ingredients with a wooden spoon, then gently fold in chocolate chips.

Using a cookie scoop, drop dough about 2 inches apart onto a prepared baking sheet

Bake cookies for 9-11 minutes and remove when edges barely begin to turn a golden brown. The cookies may look a little underdone, but they will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.

Makes 16-20 cookies.
