Vegan Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Vegan Butter ((112g))
• 1/2 cup White Granulated Sugar ((100g))
• 1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar ((50g))
• 1/2 cup Smooth Creamy Peanut Butter ((125g))
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 3/4 cups All Purpose Flour ((94g))
• 1 cup Rolled Oats ((100g))
• 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

2. 2

   Add the vegan butter and white and brown sugar to an electric mixer bowl and cream them together. Do this very well, let it run a couple of minutes while you get some other ingredients ready. Add in the peanut butter and vanilla extract while the mixer is running and let them mix in well.

3. 3

   Add the flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt to a separate bowl and mix in together. Add all the dry ingredients in with the vegan butter, sugar and peanut butter mixture. Mix together with a spoon (don't use the electric mixer for this part).

4. 4

   Your cookie dough should be fairly wet, a little too wet to roll into balls with your hands. Use a cookie scoop to scoop out even sized amount of dough onto a parchment lined baking tray. Aim for roughly 2 Tablespoon sized balls and to get around 20 cookies.

5. 5

   Flatten the cookies with a fork.

6. 6

   Bake for 12-15 minutes. When you bring them out the oven they will be very soft in the middle but lightly browned on top.

7. 7

   Allow them to cool directly on the tray so they can firm up before you move them.
