Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are so easy and so delicious. My family and I devour them in a heartbeat. Beware- You can't ever eat just one. Following the steps is important (You know how I hate to follow steps)! If you don't, it won't mix properly.

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup peanut butter
• 2 eggs+1 egg white
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 2 1/2 cups gluten-free oats
• 3/4 to 1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350. Blend together brown sugar and peanut butter. Blend in eggs. Stir in vanilla extract and baking powder. Pour in oats and mix well. Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon a tbsp of mixture onto ungreased cookie sheet about 1 inch apart.

They flatten on their own. Cook for 8-10 minutes. Enjoy!

Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal

In keeping with the pumpkin trend of fall, I decided I wanted to have some pumpkin flavored breakfast. This is awesome.

• 1/2 cup oat meal
• 3/4 cup water (you can do half water/half almond milk for a creamier taste)
• 2 tbs. canned pumpkin
• cinnamon
• nutmeg
• agave

Bring liquid to a boil and add the oatmeal and pumpkin. Turn to med/low temp and let it simmer until it absorbs the moisture.

Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and agave to taste.

Now, the oat meal is good like this. However, it was missing that little wow factor that I always strive for. As i searched through my fridge, it came to me.

 

BAM!

A splash of vanilla creamer completes the deliciousness. Enjoy.
