Ingredients
- Butter- I have used regular salted Amul butter at room temperature. You may use any local brand. If you are using unsalted butter, you may add salt. For making vegan cookies, you may use vegan butter or vegetable oil.
- Desi Ghee-This is an unusual ingredient for baking. My love for ghee forced me to try baking desserts with it and I am surprised to see good results. Feel free to skip it and add any other oil or butter.
- Peanut Butter-is the star ingredient of this recipe. Creamy and rich in savory sweet flavor, it imparts volume and perfect crunchy texture to these cookies. I love the sweetened Pintola Brand as it has chunks of peanuts. You may use any good brand. If you have allergy or don't like peanut butter, you may swap it with any other butter.
- Oats-The rolling oats work best for this recipe. If you skip it, you may add more wheat flour to make peanut cookies.
- Cinnamon and Cardamom Powder- The spices are the soul of any dish. Both cardamom and cinnamon add depth to the flavor of these cookies. The baking aroma created with them makes you crave for them more.
- Wheat Flour- I prefer using whole wheat flour in most of my recipes. It may make the cookies a bit dense and if you wish to have light texture, you may use APF.
- Raisins & Walnuts-add sweet chunky flavor to these cookies. Walnuts add earthy flavor. You may add chocolate chips as well.
- Milk-This recipe uses low fat dairy milk. You may use full fat or low fat milk. if you wish to make these cookies vegan, use any good quality vegan milk.
- Sugar- I have used white granulated sugar. You may use brown sugar. If you wish to make these cookies low calorie, use stevia.
Variations
- Vegan Oatmeal Cookies- You may swap dairy milk and butter with good vegan substitutes.
- No Bake Oatmeal Cookies- The same recipe can be made no-bake recipe by simmering the ingredients slowly in a sauce pan till mixture becomes a whole lump. Place the mixture in the shape of balls on a parchment paper and freeze for few hrs.

Detailed Recipe Step by Step

2) Add Desi ghee to above and add milk gradually and keep mixing.
3) Add peanut butter, cinnamon and cardamom spices and mix well.
4) Adjust Milk quantity. Add wheat flour to the above mixture.
5) Add oats, chopped raisins, little baking soda and mix well to make a smooth yet loose (not-tight) dough. Don't overmix.
6) Transfer the dough to a greased parchment paper placed on a baking dish. You may use a cookie maker or make small balls by hand. Place the balls on paper in reasonable gaps and make a thumb impression to make them flat.
Preheat the OTG for 5 min and bale the cookies at 200 degrees C. Keep a check on aroma and texture. Time may vary as per equipment and conditions.
