Ingredients

3 large eggs
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup salted butter, melted
1½ cups creamy peanut butter
4½ cups old fashioned oats
½ cup whole wheat flour
¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
¾ cup butterscotch chips
¾ cup candy coated peanut butter pieces, Little Secrets (dye free) or Reese's Pieces

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, brown sugar, sugar, vanilla, honey, baking soda, and salt. Mix well until combined.
Add melted butter while mixing at low speed.
Add peanut butter, oats and flour. Mix until combined.
Stir in chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and candy pieces.
Let the cookie dough rest for 30 minutes. This is important to let the oats absorb the butter and needed moisture to create the most perfect chewy texture.
Preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease or line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Drop the dough using a large scoop or heaping ¼ cupfuls onto baking sheets and gently pat down. Approximately 6-8 cookies on a sheet.
Bake one pan at a time for 12-14 minutes until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let cool 2-3 minutes on the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
