Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Happy Cookie Week. There is another good one coming at you on Friday. But for today, lets focus on these peanut butter cookies.

My husband declared these the perfect mixture of crunch and chewy. Then he wondered how I made them without flour. I said oats and science. I can't explain the science part though.

The dough for this will seem pretty wet. And the cookies seem a little undone. Rest assured the dough is okay and the cookies firm up.

They don't look appealing before they're baked. I mean, look at that mess of a mixing bowl.

If you used gluten free oats you've got some celiac-friendly cookies too.

By the way, if you look at the original recipe her cookies are way thicker than mine. Not sure why mine turned out differently but I like how they turned out. Enjoy!
