Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar (can also substitute brown sugar)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup natural creamy peanut butter I use smuckers
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup old fashioned oats use gluten-free oats for GF option
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup Mini M&M's
- 1/2 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Place eggs, coconut sugar, granulated sugar, creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir together until combined.
- Add the oats, baking soda and salt and mix well. Then add the chocolate chips and M&M's and mix well until combined. Do not over stir. Dough will be thick and heavy.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill dough in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or up to 4 days, before baking.
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a large cookie sheet with silpat mat or parchment paper. Scoop about a tablespoon of dough onto lined cookie sheet. Press down on balls, in the middle, to form more of a cookie shape rather than a ball shape. Cookies will not expand as much as cookies with flour, but place about an inch apart.
- Bake for 8 minutes or until the edges are firm. Cookies will be a tad under baked. Do not overbake.
- While cookies are in the oven, place leftover cookie dough back in the fridge until the previous batch is complete. Repeat until all dough is used up.
- When cookies are done, let cool for about 10 minutes then transfer to a baking rack to cool completely. You can keep these in an airtight container or freezer baggie for about 7 days or freeze up to 6 months.
- Makes about 16-18 cookies.
