Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies

Sick day #2. Today consisted of studying my bible, The Pioneer Woman, & cooking. I'm in my second week of my bible class through Liberty Online. It's already been so beneficial because it gives me tools to effectively & accurately read my bible. The hard part is most college classes you can get an A without doing the reading...but in a bible class the whole point is to do the reading. So it takes a lot more time than a typical class would. After saying that, I do suggest that everyone take a bible class because it has improved my understanding of the bible in such a small frame of time.

Recently I have a habit of cleaning the kitchen while watching the pioneer woman & then cooking while watching the pioneer woman. After I finished my bible reading that basically summed up the rest of my day. I made sunny side up eggs with sautéed red onion & mushrooms in red wine vinegar for breakfast this morning.    It was fantastic.

But anyways let's get to the subject of this post. I have no idea why but I was craving Oatmeal Cookies today. Of course even when I am sick, I still try to eat healthy so I came up with my own healthier, low calorie, vegan recipe.

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies

Servings: 12          Calories: 54

Ingredients:

• 1 c. Oats
• 1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
• Pinch of Salt
• Egg Replacement (1 tbsp. flax meal + 3 tbsp. water)
• 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
• 1/2 c. PB2
• 1/4 c. Light Brown Sugar
• Raisins (optional)

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grab a medium bowl & combine the oats, cinnamon, baking soda, & salt. Grab a smaller bowl for your egg replacement. Let it sit for 4 minutes. Next add brown sugar, vanilla, & your PB2 (already combined with water). Add the smaller mixture to the bigger mixture & roll into balls & place on your cookie sheet.
Place your cookies in the oven for 8-10 minutes. Take out of the oven & get munching.

Enjoy!!
