These were great. I agree with other posters, you need to add 1/2 cup extra of oats in order to make them perfect. I also added a little bit of cinnamon to bring out the flavors more.

The best! I followed the recipe Exactly, didn't change a thing and they turned out great! One tip to people using this recipe, they fluff up a lot so leave a bit more room in between when baking! Thanks for the Recipe!

These cookies have never failed me. Perfect soft texture and salty-sweet taste every time. I use butter instead of margarine, and natural peanut butter. People always ask for the recipe!

The best peanut butter oatmeal cookie I have come across! I used butter and crisco for the flavor and texture. I doubled the oats and it was perfect for us. I omitted the salt because it is salty enough from PB and decreased the white sugar to 1/2 cup. I may add peanut butter chips or chocolate chips in the future but this recipe is rich enough with 1 cup of PB.

These are fantastic! Baked for 11 min. in my oven, then cooled for 4 min on the sheet or they crumbled. We used real butter instead of margarine & Crunchy Jif peanut butter. Also, added about a cup of white chocolate chips. They stayed wonderful & soft in an airtight container.

This recipe was easy to make, but too salty. Next time I'll add a a dash of salt instead of the full teaspoon. I did add chocolate chips to mine which gave it a little punch.

Rave reviews! I added about a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to make them even more delish. I will make them again. Thank you, thank you.

Deeeeelicious! I was looking for something rich tasting to go with the horchata I had at home - and this did it! I made a few modifications - I used all butter, and whole wheat flour. Other than that nothing changed and I was rewarded with a chewy center and semi-crunchy ends. You couldn't even taste the whole wheat flour. Woot!

These are really good! I made these because I am trying to get my family to eat more grains. I used raw oatmeal because I don't use instant. The oats add a nice texture and a nutty flavor.I have used the same peanut butter cookie recipe my mom has used for 60+ years. I think I just found one to replce it. Sorry mom!! :D

These were AMAZING!!! I made half of them according to recipe and added chocolate chips to the other half. The entire family has said these are a must-make-again cookie!

I followed the recipe as written and while the cookies were soft and chewy with great texture the taste overall was a little off somehow. maybe not enough peanut butter, i don't know. tasted more of the butter/shortening than the peanut butter. I have had better and this is just not what we were looking for. would not make again. I hate that because the overall texture was great.

These are great! I made them for my husband's work and they loved them. I added 1 tsp vanilla, omitted the shortening in favor of 1 cup butter, and doubled the oats. I think these would be great with the addition of more chopped nuts or chocolate chips -- I've gotta try this next time. These will be in my regular rotation from now on! Awesome cookies!

These cookies were a big hit with my kids. They came out perfect, very soft and yummy. I look forward to trying them next time with chocolate chips. Also, I did add the extra 1/4 C. of flour and 1/2 C. of oatmeal like suggested.

This recipe is very bland. Like most peanut butter cookies, the true flavor didn't come out until hours later if not the next day. But even then they were still very bland. I'm so glad I added chocolate chips. Otherwise these would have just been boring. After viewing other peoples pictures I was fearful of them being flat. So I took another reviewers suggestion, to increase the peanut butter and oatmeal both by a 1/2 cup and added 1 tsp vanilla. I was also mindful not to over beat the creamed batter and to place dough on a cool pan with parchment paper. I'm not sure if it helped, but mine came out fluffy and are not crisp at all. Very soft cookie. I'm not sure I will bake these again, just b/c they are lacking flavor.
