My love for this combination of flavors runs deep in my veins…seriously! To make Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookies extra crunchy and healthy, I added some pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds in dough.

Making these cookies isn’t that difficult. All the ingredients are very common and convenient, most likely you will find them in your kitchen already. I always use Buckwheat flour or Ragi flour in my cookies and cakes because it makes my cookies and cakes very light, healthy and gluten-free. These cookies are packed with high protein as the recipe includes rolled oats, peanut butter, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds which makes it perfect for breakfast.

You may wonder why you make same particular recipe again and again but they bake out differently; sometimes they spread but sometimes they hold their shape. The reason is the room temperature at that you start with, that impact the way cookie bake. To fix that, simply pop the prepared cookie dough in the refrigerator for at least half an hour. After chilling when it sets the dough no matter at what temperature your ingredients were when you started making your cookie recipe, they will always bake out evenly and beautifully. Also the cookie dough will be too sticky to work with unless it has been chilled. So chilling the dough not only bakes the cookie even, it makes the dough easier to work with. And also it binds the flavors together. So now you know that how chilling process is so important for baking the cookies.

One more important part of baking cookies is scooping and dropping. The simplest technique is once the cookie dough is chilled just take about two tablespoons of the dough and roll it like a ball between your palms. These cookies take about 12-13 minutes in the oven. Try not to over bake them.

Step 5- Add peanut butter, milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat again until everything well combined.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 6- Add the flour mixture (step 1) to this and mix until everything is well combined, there should not be any lump in the mixture.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 7- Now, add the rolled Oats and again mix well, mixture should be very sticky by now. If the mixture is very dry and not able to bind then add 1 or 2 tablespoon milk.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 13- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes first; then using a flat spatula gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cookies are still warm, you can press a few more chocolate chunks or seeds onto the tops if you want- this is only for their beautiful looks!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

These Cookies stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes-

Chill the dough. Chilling the dough for a few hours will help the peanut butter cookies maintain their shape, and not overly spread when cooked. If chilling for longer than 1 hour, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard and cookies will not spread much.

Use a lower oven temp for chewier cookies. If you want chewy cookies, bake a little longer at a lower temperature.

Make Ahead Instructions: You can make the cookie dough and chill it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Allow to come to room temperature then continue with step 4. Baked cookies freeze well for up to 3 months. Unbaked cookie dough balls freeze well for up to 3 months. Bake frozen cookie dough balls for an extra minute, no need to thaw.
