Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter I used Adams All Natural Peanut Butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup instant oats
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup M&M candies

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together peanut butter, brown sugar, oatmeal, eggs (beaten), honey, baking powder, and vanilla until well blended. It will look creamy, smooth and glossy. You should not be able to see any egg throughout the batter.
  • Using a cookie dough scoop, scoop the dough and place it on a cookie. Bake 10-12 minutes. At 10 minutes I take out the pan and drop it on the counter to help cookies flatten a bit, then stick back in the oven for another 2 minutes. 
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
