Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter I like Smart Balance
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 large or extra large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup whole grain flour
  • 1 cup quick or regular rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries

Instructions

  • Cream butter and peanut butter with mixer, then add sugars and baking soda. Finally add the egg and vanilla, and blend together.
  • Stir together the flour and oats, then add to the blended mixture, and stir everything till combined.
  • Spoon rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart on a large greased cookie sheet (Or use baking parchment). Flatten a tiny bit with the back of a spoon because these cookies don’t spread a whole lot. Bake for about 10 minutes in a preheated 375 degree oven.
