Ingredients:

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition

Stir in the vanilla extract

In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie

Gently flatten each cookie with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern on top

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely

Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container
