Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 0.75 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the unsalted butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg, milk, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture and beat until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough forms and no streaks of flour remain.
Scoop out the dough using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, and roll each portion into a ball. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each ball with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on the surface of each biscuit.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake; the biscuits will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the biscuits cool for 5 minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Peanutty Biscuits on their own or with a spread of jam for an extra layer of flavor. Enjoy!
