Ingredient notes
Butter – We always choose salted for the best flavor.
Sugars – The combination of light brown sugar and granulated sugar creates cookies that are soft and taste great.
Eggs – For the best cookies, make sure the eggs are at room temperature.
Vanilla – Pure vanilla extract tastes much better than artificial!
Peanut butter – We use all-natural, creamy, salted peanut butter.
Flour – All-purpose flour works best in this recipe. We haven't tried it with gluten-free flour, but a 1-1 blend should work. If you try it, let us know in the comments!
Baking soda – Helps the cookies rise.
Sea salt – If you only have table salt, reduce the amount to Ā¼ teaspoon.
Oats – We prefer old-fashioned rolled oats, but quick oats will work, too.
Walnuts – We toast the nuts in the oven for about 7 minutes before chopping them as it gives them the best flavor. You can substitute pecans or even peanuts!
Raisins – Dried cranberries make a great substitute.
Coconut – We like to use unsweetened coconut and toast it in the oven for the most flavor.
Chocolate chips – Chocolate chunks, or a mix of chips and chunks, is also delicious!
