How to make Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
This cookie dough is easy to throw together and it makes quite a few chewy cookies. This recipe will yield 36-40 regular sized cookies.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and ground oatmeal; set aside.
- Cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Add the egg and beat to combine.
- On low speed, gradually add the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop dough onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 -12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden.
Kitchen Tips
- I run my old fashioned oatmeal through my mini food processor before mixing it with the dry ingredients. If you prefer chunks of oats in your cookies, simply skip the processing.
- You can use any combination of your favorite chocolate chips. I’ve used a combination of milk chocolate, semi-sweet, and dark chocolate, but any one type or combo will be great.
- Just like all other chocolate chip cookies, you can freeze this dough. I suggest portioning out dough balls and placing them on a wax paper-lined cookie sheet or dinner plate. Be sure they aren’t touching each other then freeze. When frozen place them in a freezer gallon plastic bag.

Can I add bananas to the recipe as I have them frozen in my freezer?
Amanda Formaro says
Frozen bananas release a lot of liquid when they thaw. So it will definitely affect the recipe. I would recommend fresh only.
