- Mix the oil, peanut butter, jam and sugar in a large mixing bowl

- Make 12-16 balls (size of a meatball) by rolling between your hands and place them on a baking tray

Yes, basically you just need to mix everything in a bowl. I made 16 cookies as I like mini size cookies. If you make them in bigger size, you could probably make 10-12 cookies. As you can see on the photos, my cookies are gold brown on the top because I flip them over halfway through cooking but it is not necessary, I just prefer this way!
The cookies are quite soft when they come out of the oven but become harder with in a few minutes as they cool. They will keep in an airtight container up to 4 days 🙂
