Preparation Steps

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.
• In a large bowl, beat the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and smooth.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Scoop the dough into 1.5-tablespoon sized balls and place on the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between cookies.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned but the centers are still soft.
• Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
