Earlier this afternoon, I felt like the Cookie Monster. I needed cookies in a bad way, and I knew nothing else would satisfy my craving. So, I whipped up a small batch of Flourless Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies. They did the trick, and I feel better now. Thank goodness.
Makes 1 dozen
Ingredients:
- 1.25 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp butter, softened
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350*F.
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well until batter is blended evenly.
- Portion cookies on a greased baking sheet, approximately 1-2 inches apart.
- Bake cookies for approximately 12-15 minutes.
- Remove cookies from baking sheet and allow to cool on wire rack.
- Eat and enjoy!

What type of rolled oats did you use? Old Fashioned? Quick oats?
@Amanda: I used old fashioned.
Love quick PB cookies! Thanks for another recipe!
Did you use regular peanut butter or all natural? Just wondering if it would make a difference.
@Jenna…lifeinjenneral: I use Teddie Peanut butter.
Eek, these look SO GOOD!! Making these ASAP.
If you’re the cookie monster, I must be your mother
@Khushboo: Ha!
I’ve never been brave enough to try making cookies without flour, but I have to admit, these look great
I made these last night and they were fabulous!! I threw some carob chips in half the batch too, so naturally I HAD to try both (twice?). Thanks!!
Amazing, I’m trying these ASAP. Looks quick, easy, and delicious!
I love that this recipe makes a smaller batch. I only have myself to cook/bake for and it is not idea for me to have lots of cookies left over, but with your recipe, it is just enough to satisfy the craving.
I am going to try these, thanks!
I think the cookie monster has just entered the kitchen
Don’t mind if I add some chocolate chips…
these look so great! this is basically everyones favorite combo rolled into a recipe
hmmm I think I’ll make these tomorrow
They sound really good!
I just made these… The 3 year old I nanny for helped. I love simple recipes like this. They were fool proof. Thanks!
YUM!!!!! Peanut Butter is my favorite!
I just whipped up a batch after work — delish!
do you know the nutrition information for these, they look totally awesome!
@kathy kelly: No, sorry. But, you could probably figure out an estimate using one of those calorie calculators online.
What is the nutrition analysis for these cookies (Flour-less P-nut butter)
please send privately to my e address because I don’t know if I will find this place again. thanks
I used this website: http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php
These came out to 106 calories per cookie if your recipe makes 12. I am dieting right now so they make the perfect treat! (I am baking them now for the second week in a row.)
These look so good!! I can’t wait and attempt to make them…I don’t cook very often so my blog is mainly based on restaurants etc… But I am trying to get more into cooking and baking! Thanks for the recipes
Yum!! I just made these but instead of butter I used coconut oil and added chocolate chips, slivered almonds and coconut flakes. So good I can’t stop eating them
Delicious!! I made mine with earth balance, peanut butter,roasted unsalted sun flower seeds, walnuts, english toffee liquid stevia, vanilla extract, sugar free hazelnut creamer, and egg whites.
Made the recipe exactly as written and baked 15 minutes. Delicious!
I just finish making your cookies! Delicious!
Can I use quick cooking oats for this recipes
@Rozlynn: Yep!
i just made these and they were so good!! i used applesauce instead of butter and added cinnamon. so so good!! i ended up making 2 more batches right afterwards haha. thank you for this great recipe
These are great! The small batch size, the ease, and the endless possibilities for substitutions make this my instant new favorite.
I added shredded coconut and dried cranberries to my first batch. I’ll have to ration them out to myself or I’ll eat the entire batch by midnight!
Thanks!
I made these and they are sooo good. My husband even liked them which is a shocker. I used honey instead of sugar, coconut oil instead of butter, whipped peanut butter, and a little extra oatmeal. sooo good!
I just made these with Nutella instead of peanut butter, and subbed brown sugar for regular white–and they are to dieeee for. Delicious!!
Thanks for the yummy recipe (and satisfying *my* cookie monster craving, hah).
These look great, but for people with celiac disease they would have to be made with pure oats – oat flakes from the grocery shelf are *not* gluten-free.
I made these last might and they are so good! Thanks for the recipe.
just made these an added grape jam in middle half way threw baking…..
@chrissy: tell me how they turn out please i’ll make more (; (;
awesome just made them and my daughter and her father love them thanks(;
I just put them in the oven and realized, I FORGOT BAKING POWDER! :O
This should be interesting.
Very good, love the small amount of butter and sugar. I used more PB ( 1/3 c) I’m partial to PB, especially Peanut Butter & co. I used a bit cinnamon raisin swirl and the rest crunch time. I also added currants. Delish everyone I’ve passed em’ on to has been impressed. Easy one bowl bake and shake it off recipe. Thank you for sharing.

Definitely my go to, been constant in my kitchen since the day I tried the recipe. I’ve tried tons similar ;-/ I keep them in the fridge, outta sight out of mind doesn’t work so well though..
I just made these cookies,I added half a banana and took away half the sugar,I also used soya butter!
super fantastic! thank you!
I’ve made these several times this summer. Tonight I tried something a little different. Unsweetened applesauce instead of butter and added shredded coconut (based on one of your recent posts). YUMMY!!!!!
I needed to make a flourless oatmeal cookie for my brother’s birthday and I was worried. I didn’t have time or supplies to make multiple batches of cookies. These turned out perfect. I wasn’t a fan of them hot but the next day….well lets just say I wasn’t a peanut butter cookie monster until after I tried these. Making a batch just for me right now. Thank you.
This recipe is amazing! My friend and I polished off a double batch of these to ourselves in 1 hour. SO yummy.
These were tasty and simple. Thanks!
