Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agent. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the peanut butter, butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and creamy. This may take 3-5 minutes. The mixture should be well combined and fluffy.

04

Step
2 mins

Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then, stir in the vanilla and almond extracts. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix! Overmixing develops gluten and can result in tough cookies. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Fold in the quick-cooking oats until evenly distributed throughout the dough. (2 minutes)

07

Step
10 mins

Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. (10 minutes)

08

Step
3 mins

If desired, use a fork to gently press a criss-cross pattern onto the top of each cookie. (3 minutes)

09

Step
15 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. (15 minutes)

10

Step

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For a deeper peanut butter flavor, use natural peanut butter.
To prevent the cookies from spreading too much, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Experiment with adding chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried cranberries for extra flavor and texture.
For chewier cookies, slightly underbake them.
