Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy all natural peanut butter (the only ingredients should be peanuts and salt)
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten free rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt

Additional

  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it's ready for baking the cookies evenly.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together the creamy peanut butter, pure maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten free rolled oats, baking powder, and sea salt to evenly distribute the leavening and seasoning.
  4. Mix Wet and Dry: Add the dry oats mixture to the wet ingredients bowl and beat until fully incorporated, forming your cookie dough.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Stir or beat in the semi sweet chocolate chips ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the dough.
  6. Form Cookies: Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto a non-stick baking sheet, shaping them into rounds as desired.
  7. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven at 350 degrees for 8-13 minutes, or until the centers are set and cookies are lightly golden but still soft.

Notes

  • Use natural peanut butter with only peanuts and salt for best flavor and texture.
  • Maple syrup offers a wholesome sweetness; do not substitute with sugar syrup to maintain the texture.
  • Gluten free rolled oats keep this recipe gluten free; ensure your oats are certified gluten free if necessary.
  • Watch the baking time closely as overbaking can dry out the cookies.
  • Cookies will firm up as they cool, so slightly underbaking ensures they remain chewy.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
