Say goodbye to Peanut Butter!
Raise your hand if you love peanut butter.
Yes, it's delicious, creamy, great on everything, or straight from the jar. But it's a well-known fact that most generic peanut butters are full of trans fat (partially hydrogenated oils), added sugars, and added salt.
Peanut Butter Cookies
First of all, I'm going to fess up and say that the cookies came out a bit dry and lacked a great peanut butter flavor. However that is definitely because of the peanut butter I used. I opted for an organic, all-natural peanut butter that did not bring nearly enough oil/fat or flavor to the party.

Recipe from: Hodgson Mill's Oat Bran cereal box :)
Alright — so just recently I had a fun girl's night and I typically like to volunteer to bring the dessert when we're doing dinner potluck style. Although I definitely love my every-now-and-then indulgences, I try to stick to "healthier" versions of fav recipes for better health. A few weekends ago I volunteered to make these peanut butter oat bran cookies and they were SO delicious, girls!
