Description
The perfect sweet treat for peanut butter fans: Oats Peanut Butter M&M’s Cookies. Easy to prepare and extremely delicious!
Ingredients
1/2 cup (120g) margarine (or butter), at room temperature
1/4 cup (50g) sugar
1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup (130g) peanut butter*
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup (130g) all-purpose flour
2/3 cup (80g) porridge oats*
2/3 cup (60g) rolled oats
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
3.5 oz. (100g) semisweet chocolate chips
3.5 oz. (100g) M&M’s
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside.
2. Add the margarine (or butter) and both sugars to a large bowl and mix until very light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until well combined. Next, add the peanut butter and vanilla extract and mix in. In a separate bowl mix the flour with porridge oats, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Add to the large bowl and mix until just combined – do not overmix! Add the chocolate chips and M&M’s and fold in. Let the dough sit for 5 minutes.
3. Use a large cookie scoop* and place dough portions on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten the dough portions – the dough is not spreading a lot. I could place eight cookies on the baking sheet. Bake the cookies for about 15-16 minutes. Take the cookies out of the oven and let them cool down for some time on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack – let them cool down completely. Repeat the process with the remaining dough to bake more cookies.
