ngredients
- 125g/4½oz rolled oats

- 125g/4½oz peanut (or other nut) butter
- 125g/4½oz caster sugar
- 1 free-range egg, lightly beaten
- 50g/1¾oz raisins (optional)
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 170C/150C Fan/Gas 3 and line two baking trays with baking paper.

Briefly whizz the oats in a food processor until they are chopped to half their original size. Add the bicarbonate of soda and whizz for another 5 seconds then tip into a mixing bowl.
-
Add the peanut butter, sugar and egg (and raisins if using) and mix until thoroughly combined.
-
Roll the mixture into walnut-sized balls and arrange on the trays, leaving a little space between each one. Flatten each cookie to about 1cm/½in thick.
-
Bake for 12–14 minutes until crisp and starting to turn golden brown. Leave the cookies to cool on the baking tray to firm up.
