Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the peanut butter and brown sugar for 1 minute. Add in the vanilla extract and beat for another 30 seconds.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients (oat flour, baking soda, and salt).

Step 4

While beating the peanut butter mixture, slowly add in the oat flour mixture and beat until a crumby dough forms. Add the water and continue to beat until distributed. Do not over mix.

Step 5

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 6

Roll the dough into balls (about 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons per cookie), drop onto parchment-lined pan, and flatten with a fork one way and then the other to create a crisscross pattern.

Step 7

Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until just starting to turn golden at the edges (they bake FAST, so watch them carefully).

Step 8

Cool completely on the pan before moving or enjoy.

Step 9

Store in an airtight plastic container to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
