My mom made some mean peanut butter cookies when I was growing up... she still makes them when we have a family get-together. They are comfort food at its best.
Since my family is trying to cut out grains, I have found a great recipe for these yummy morsels that calls for NO wheat flour. I have also cut the sugar down from the original recipe, and the peanut buttery goodness shines through :)
This recipe makes 2 dozen cookies:
1 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 c organic sugar
1/4 c packed organic brown sugar
1 large egg
1/4 c + almond flour
1/2 t aluminum-free baking soda
1/2 t vanilla extract
1/4 t fine sea salt
Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Mix all ingredients until well-incorporated. Roll into balls (about the size of large marbles), then smoosh with a fork in a grid pattern.
If the dough is too sticky, just add a little almond flour as you roll them out! Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes, until light golden brown. They will be very light and fluffy- great with a big glass of raw milk :) YUM!
( just a note: parchment paper was mentioned in the original recipe, but ours worked fine without)
Let these babies cool for at least 5 minutes before you dig in... and you will want to dig in! These are so yummy :) Enjoy!
