Easy Peanut Butter Cookies
"Easy Peanut Butter Cookies made with just a handful of ingredients and no flour! Easy peanut butter cookie recipe made with peanut butter, brown sugar, an egg and baking soda. These cookies whip up fast and it’s a great gluten-free option. I’ve seen other peanut butter cookies with few ingredients and trust me, the small amount of baking soda you add in for these makes them better! They puff up slightly and have a great texture."

Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
-
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Combine all ingredients (except granulated sugar) in a medium bowl or mixer. I think a mixer works well for these cookies because it almost whips the dough, so it’s lighter. Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto baking sheet.
-
Wet a fork with water and dip in granulated sugar. Press fork into each cookie dough ball twice, in a criss cross pattern.
-
Bake 7-9 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for an additional 5 minutes after removing them from the oven. Transfer to a cooling rack.
-
Store leftovers in an air tight container. Enjoy!
