Ingredients

  • ½ cup oats or about ⅓ cup oat flour (45 grams)
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour (45 gram)
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or vegan butter
  • ¼ cup brown sugar, rightly packed (55 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (50 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons applesauce or date paste
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 tablespoons peanut butter (65 grams)
  • ¼ cup peanuts
  • ⅓ cup bittersweet chocolate chips or ⅓ cup chopped up good quality chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. or 350 degrees F. if baking in a toaster oven.
  • Grind oats in processor. If you are using oat flour, you can skip this step and just weigh out 40 grams. Add flour, baking soda and salt and pulse to mix.
  • Stir oil and both sugars together in a medium bowl. It’s okay to do this with a spoon – no need to pull out the electric mixer. Beat in applesauce (or date paste), peanut butter and vanilla. Add flour mixture and stir until blended. Stir in peanuts and chocolate chips.
  • Using about 2 tablespoons of dough, form dough into balls and place on ungreased baking sheet. Flatten slightly. Bake until edges are golden brown, about 12-14 minutes, Cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer to racks; cool completely. Cookies will firm up as they cool.
