4 tsp. – baking soda
4 tsp. – cornstarch
2 tsp. – salt
2 cups – finely blended oatmeal (I just put 2 cups oatmeal in a blender)

- In a medium bowl whisk together baking soda, cornstarch, salt, oatmeal and flour
- In a large mixing bowl cream together butter, peanut butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
