π A Bite of History
The fusion of peanut butter and oats dates back to early American kitchens. Oats were a staple grain for breakfast, while peanut butter β first made popular by Dr. John Harvey Kellogg in the 1890s β became a favorite pantry item for its affordability and nutrition. The idea of mixing the two in a cookie came during the mid-20th century when home bakers were experimenting during wartime rationing. The result? A cookie that was affordable, nutritious, and undeniably delicious.
