Lower Fat Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup butter (softened)
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups peanut butter (I like extra chunky)
1 egg
1 cup oat flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats

Preparation

1. In a mixing bowl, add butter, shortening, sugars, honey, and peanut butter. Use the whisk attachment and mix/beat well,.
2. Add egg and vanilla and whip until fluffy.
3. Whisk together wheat flour, oat flour, baking soda, and salt. Add slowly to wet ingredients until just incorporated.
4. Use a spatula and incorporate the quick oats.
5. The dough will be slighly sticky. Refrigerate for an hour to make it handle more easily.
6. Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
7. Roll into about 30-36 balls and bake for approx 12-15 minutes - they can brown nicely and still not become crispy.
