    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

    • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

Wet Ingredients:

    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

    • 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)

    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

    • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

    • 1 large egg

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins:

    • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

    • 1/2 cup chopped peanuts (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and prepare

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.

Step 2: Mix the dry ingredients

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and rolled oats. Set aside.

Step 3: Cream the butter and sugars

    • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

    • Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

Step 4: Combine wet and dry ingredients

    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5: Fold in the add-ins

    • Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped peanuts (if using) until evenly distributed.

Step 6: Scoop and bake

    • Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

    • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft.

Step 7: Cool and serve

    • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
