Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

Makes: 20  medium size cookies

Ingredients:

1 cup - 125grams all purpose flour 

1/2 cup - 40grams oat flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda 

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup - 35grams unsweetened cocoa powder

1 stick - 113grams unsalted butter at room temperature

1 cup - 200grams brown sugar ( I used about 150grams and I am fine with it)

1 egg at room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract 

1/4 cup - 65grams creamy or chunky peanut butter

1 cup - 175grams chocolate chips 

Method:

Combine all purpose flour, oat flour, baking soda and salt.

Stir to combine. 

Sieve in cocoa powder to flour mixture to remove any lumps, blend again to combine, set aside.

In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together until fluffy using a large whisk or electric mixer. 

Gradually add in the egg and vanilla extract, stir together combine. 

It may look like it curdled but fear not, it will come together. 

Once combined, add in the peanut butter, stir again. 

Add in the flour mixture and stir for about 1 minute, still leaving some flour traces.

Add in your chocolate chip and stir again, until fully combined. 

It may look sticky but it's fine.

Wrap it up in a cling wrap and chill it for about 30 minutes. 

10 minutes before you bring your dough out of the fridge, preheat oven to 350F/180C.

Bring your dough out of the fridge and using a tablespoon scoop, scoop out balls of dough and use your hand to roll it into a ball. 

Place it on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or silpat. 

Using your palm, slightly flatten the dough.

Sprinkle more chocolate chips if you like!

Bake in preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes or until it's slightly cracked at the sides.

Cookies will be soft but feared not, it still taste good!

Dunk it in a cup of milk, yummy!

Notes: 

Different oven varies, so it depends on individual, I baked them for about 12 to 15 minutes. Your oven might take shorter or longer.
