These remind me of the Girl Scout peanut butter sandwich cookies-they're wonderful and healthy too with the oat flour! This recipe comes from an old Quaker Oats recipe booklet that I've had for over 15 years. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 1/4 cups ground oat flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup coarsely chopped peanuts |
1 cup vegetable shortening (regular or butter flavored) |
1 cup creamy peanut butter or 1 cup crunchy peanut butter |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
2 eggs |
Directions:
1. Ground oat flour: Place 1 to 1 1/2 cups oatmeal (quick or old-fashioned) in blender or food processor.
2. Blend or process for about 60 seconds.
3. Makes about 1 cup oat flour.
4. Beat together butter, peanut butter and sugars.
5. Blend in eggs and vanilla.
6. Add combined dry ingredients: mix well.
7. Stir in peanuts.
8. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet and flatten with a fork dipped in sugar to form a crisscross pattern.
9. Bake in a preheated oven (350°) for about 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
