Using a natural peanut butter produces a slightly drier dough but equally delicious cookies. Any peanut butter can be used.
To make oat flour: In a small blender or coffee mill, process oats until finely ground.
Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen up to 3 months.
