Turn off the burner and stir in peanut butter until smooth. Stir in vanilla and oats until combined, along with a pinch of salt.
Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of cookie mix onto the baking sheet lined with wax paper. Leave space between each scoop to allow for the cookies to spread, but they shouldn’t spread much.
Pop the baking sheet of cookies into the fridge and let them chill for an hour or so, until they’re firm. Enjoy your cookies chilled or at room temperature!
