I love peanut butter and could, and sometimes do, eat it straight from the jar.
I'm a purist so I don't really want to spread it on toast and, as I found from experimenting with various cookie recipes, I don't even want chocolate fighting with the flavour.
These biscuits are the ultimate way to enjoy peanut butter: small morsels of buttery, sweet, crumbly peanut biscuit deliciousness!!

You Will Need (5 things)

  • 100 g Smooth Peanut Butter
  • 75 g Light Muscovado Sugar
  • 50 g Butter
  • 50 g Self-Raising Flour
  • 50 g Porridge Oats (fine, not jumbo or instant)

Steps (7 steps, 25 minutes)

  1. 1

    Line two baking trays and turn your oven on to 170°C.

  2. 2

    Beat together the peanut butter, sugar and butter until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add the flour and mix, then add the oats and mix again until just combined.

  4. 4

    Using your fingers, take a walnut-sized amount of dough and roll it between your hands to make a ball. Flatten into a fat disc and place on the lined baking tray. Repeat with the rest of the dough.

  5. 5

    Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the biscuits turn a golden colour.

  6. 6

    Leave to cool on the baking trays - they are very fragile when hot but will firm up as they cool.

  7. 7

    Store in an airtight container.
