Reeses Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies are filled with peanut butter, oats and are light and buttery too!
Reeses Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies are the best kind of cookie to make! This is a big batch recipe that’s perfect for parties or giving to neighbors!
The summer is off to a swinging start! I’ve been super busy with a quick trip to Minneapolis to kick off a new partnership with Land O’ Lakes butter. I spent a day on a farm, milking a cow and chasing chickens… seriously so fun! I can’t wait to share more about this partnership later this year, but for now, let’s talk cookies!!
I actually made this cookie recipe over 7 years ago (back in 2010) when I first started my blog.
The pictures were not so great, but the cookies were amazing, so I decided to retake the photos and give this post a facelift!
If you’re a fan of peanut butter cookies and oatmeal cookies, I basically took the best of both and combined them into one tender cookie! No raisins in these bad boys.
Just loads of butter, peanut butter and just the right amount of oats to still allow these cookies to be tender and lightly crisp around the edges!
Here are some fun options when making these cookies:
- Swap out Reeses candy pieces for chocolate chips
- Skip the peanut butter and add in white chocolate chips and dried cranberries
- Stir in 1 cup of chopped pecans or peanuts
- Swap out the peanut butter with Nutella for a chocolate twist!
How could you not fall in love with these cookies?!
These Reeses Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies should definitely be on your must make baking list this summer!

I absolutely ADORE these cookies! This recipe has never failed me. Because the base is so good, I want to try an alteration and take out only the peanut butter, and just make them with chocolate and caramel chips. Would I need to add a bit more butter and flour to substitute for removing the peanut butter?
Barbara
Wondering if this is a good dough to freeze? And if so, would you bake from frozen?
Shawn
Hi Barbara, yes you can definitely freeze the dough and also bake from frozen! Just bake a minute or two longer.
Kathryn
