Ingredients
1
cup
butter
1-1/4
cup
brown sugar
2
eggs
1
cup
peanut butter
1
teaspoon
vanilla
2
cups
whole wheat flour*
2
cups
whole rolled oats
1
teaspoon
baking powder
1/2
teaspoon
salt
2
cups
chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Beat in eggs, peanut butter, and vanilla until well blended.
Add flour, oats, baking powder and salt. Beat until blended, scraping sides as needed. Mix in chocolate chips.
Pat dough evenly in a parchment-lined or buttered 13x9-inch pan, using water to wet fingers in order to spread smoothly if needed.
Bake until golden around the edges, 25 minutes. Let cool on a rack until just warm (about 20-30 minutes) and cut into 24 pieces.
Let cool completely and store in an airtight container for a couple days at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
Notes
*You can also use whole wheat pastry flour or spelt flour.
