Ingredients

  • ½ cup natural peanut butter salted
  • 6 Tablespoons coconut sugar see Lower the Sugar Notes in post
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup quick oats

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Begin with room temperature ingredients, as this facilitates mixing.
  • Beat or vigorously stir together the peanut butter, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon together just until combined.
  • Beat or vigorously stir in the egg and baking soda, again just until combined.
  • Stir in the oats; the mixture will be very thick at this point.
  • Divide the dough into 10 equal-sized balls and flatten them onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 9-12 minutes, or until golden.
  • Once out of the oven, gently press down on the tops with a fork (see above image) to decrease air and compact the cookie for best texture/taste.
  • Cool and enjoy!
