We made Peanut Butter at home recently. Homemade peanut butter is pure and healthy, sans additives, hydrogenated fats and flavouring agents. We love to sweeten it with Jaggery. When there is a stock, of peanut butter at home, it opens up possibilities of endless bakes. 

Have you tried my Peanut Butter Brownies yet? These are scrumptious and addictive. Peanut and chocolate always make a winning combination. You will also love Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups.

With the recent batch of peanut butter that was made, we baked Mixed Seeds Nuts Oat Cookies. There were a lot of seeds and nuts lying in the pantry. These cookies are such a delicious way of using them. Mildly sweet, chockablock with nutrition and taste, these cookies are a breeze to make. Just take out all the seeds and nuts that you have. Add them in. You can make them in different combinations of nuts and seeds retaining the measurements given.

Chewy and moist on the inside and crisp on the outside, Mixed Seeds Nuts and Oat Cookies are delicious, nutritious and substantial. Take them on journeys, picnics or enjoy them with your tea. Kids love them and it is such a healthy snacking option.
