Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Peanut butter
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt to the mixture. Stir until fully incorporated and a dough forms.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, scoop out portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Use the back of a fork to gently press down on each dough ball, creating a crisscross pattern on top of the cookies.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set. Be careful not to overbake as the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your delicious gluten-free peanut butter cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
