Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and coconut oil using an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended and creamy.
Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the peanut butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
Mix in the almond milk and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring with a spatula or spoon until the dough comes together. Avoid overmixing.
Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls, placing them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Using a fork, gently flatten each ball in a crisscross pattern, pressing down lightly.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
