Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Non-dairy milk (e.g., almond, soy, oat)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Optional: Vegan chocolate chips or chopped peanuts
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, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, non-dairy milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until fully combined. If adding vegan chocolate chips or chopped peanuts, fold them in at this step.
Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons of dough (or use a cookie scoop) and roll into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Use a fork to press down on the dough balls, creating a crisscross pattern on each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. Do not overbake; cookies will firm up as they cool.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
