- 1 large egg
- 3 cups old-fashioned oatmeal
- 1 tsp baking soda
For the Filling

- 1/3 cup Crofter’s Organic Seedless Blackberry or Raspberry Premium Spread or jam of choice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 1/2 cup honey.
- Beat the peanut butter and honey together until smooth and fully combined.
- Add the egg to the peanut butter mixture.
- Beat until the egg is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the old-fashioned oatmeal and baking soda.
- Mix on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Using a 1/2-ounce cookie scoop, portion heaping tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Space the dough portions a few inches apart to allow room for baking.
- Gently flatten the top of each dough portion with the palm of your hand.
- Bake for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the tops begin to crack slightly.
- Remove the baking sheets from the oven.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely.
- Once fully cooled, turn all cookies over so the flat bottoms face upward.
- Spread the bottoms of half of the cookies with slightly more than 1 tsp creamy peanut butter.
- Spread the bottoms of the remaining cookies with slightly more than 1 tsp fruit spread or jam.
- Place each cookie with fruit spread upside down onto a cookie with peanut butter.
- Press gently to form a sandwich.
- Serve immediately, or store according to the storage instructions.
