These are delicious. My husband doesn’t like peanut butter cookies, but he thinks these are very very good. I think the flake salt goes a long way here and it won’t be optional when I make these! I did feel my dough was pretty oily when I got to the bottom of the bowl; There was oil left pooling. I would love the weights on this recipe.

In reply to Christy Howe. Hi Christy, I recommend the recipe as written, but you can adjust to meet your taste.

Is there a way to make this with less sugar?

The base version if this recipe (no add-ins) is INCREDIBLE. Rave reviews from the kids and husband. Possibly among the best cookies I’ve ever had???

I regret adding chocolate chips to half the batter—the dark chocolate ghiardelli chips I used totally mask the deep and delicious flavors of the cookie. I guess you live and learn—next time, I’ll make the base version and not change anything. I used creamy unsalted natural peanut butter, melted virgin coconut oil, light brown sugar, quick oats, and sprinkled with maldon flaky sea salt.

Loved this recipe. I did feel like it needed some salt, next time I’ll probably add a little more. But otherwise it was fantastic. I also made some of the dough after refrigerating and rolled them, and I preferred the batch after refrigerating, but that may be just personal preference. They do turn out smaller and more mounded if refrigerated, which suited me.

In reply to Rae Thompson. Hi Rae, ounces can be confusing, because it is used to describe both volume and weight! For solids, you can usually assume it means weight, and for liquid, volume.

In reply to Cookie and Kate. Oh, that is so helpful! I would never have guessed. That could be a reason I’m getting some peanut butter recipes wrong. Thank you so much.

In reply to Rae Thompson. Hi Rae, because peanut butter is dense, its weight in ounces is different from its volume in ounces (cups are volume). 1 cup of peanut butter is 9 ounces b y weight.
