Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Natural peanut butter (unsweetened, creamy or chunky)
- 0.5 cup Erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 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, erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener), egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt.
Use a spatula or hand mixer to blend all the ingredients together until a smooth dough forms.
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time and roll it into a ball using your hands.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using the back of a fork, gently press down on each dough ball to create a crisscross pattern on top.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake as they can dry out quickly.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
