Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
Things of note in rapid fire:
- I shamelessly watched The Jersey Shore on Thursday. Trainwreck.com.
- Friday night was a closet organizing extravaganza.
- Saturday was a refill the closet extravaganza. Personal shoppers are dangerous. (This, this, this & this)
- My sister’s birthday party was Saturday evening. I made chocolate chip cookie dough cheesecake bites (a post to come!) and jalapeno popper dip. Holy yum.
- Sunday was the wedding for the lovely couple that own Marchesi Vineyards. Andrew was Mr. Photographer. I was Mr. Photographer’s caddy + date. It was such a beautiful ceremony in a beautiful place for beautiful people [and delicious food and wine!].
- I pulled a muscle today that is going to keep me from working out for a bit. All I can say is I’m graceful.
And now I’m back to regularly scheduled life..
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup spelt flour
- 1/8 cup ground chia seeds
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup agave syrup
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Line a cookie sheet with a silpat (or parchment or cooking spray).
- Combine all ingredients together in a bowl. It’ll be a sticky, delicious mess.
- Wet your hands, and take a tablespoon sized amount of dough and roll it into a ball. Place them on the cookie sheet. [I was able to make about 18 cookies]
- Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
- Allow to cool before eating because that hurts. Just sayin’.
Personal shoppers are genius. Those are some cute clothes. 🙂 I love the chia seeds in these cookies. They’re so pretty!
Thanks! Chia seeds are the new flaxseed, so I went out on a limb with them. They worked great!
Juust might make those cookies for dinner tonight or tomorrow. And I will be watching Jersey Shore shamelessly EVERY Thursday 🙂
Yay! Someone to watch JS with me. Although I usually don’t get to it until its available online on Friday’s since I got rid of cable, but I’ll be right there with you!
Made the cookies–so good! And I’ll try not to post any JS spoilers right away 😀 And I’m ridiculous enough to be cooking a bunch of friends dinner for a pre-Jersey Shore party tomorrow evening…
These look beyond awesome.
They were pretty awesome as a breakfast substitute, I must say.
