Gluten Free Recipes: Peanut Butter Cookies
Peanut Butter Cookies: flour-less & gluten-free, but also delicious!
So, I went through about 3 jars of peanut butter this week because I wanted to try out a few different flour-less peanut butter cookie recipes. Good thing they are so easy and quick to whip up! I made a few tweaks and tried a few different things, but this is the recipe that I like the best so far. Great texture, great flavor. Gluten-free with ingredients you probably already have!

Gluten Free Recipes: Peanut Butter Cookies
Fabulessly Frugal
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Topping Ideas:
- Reese's Pieces
- crushed peanuts
- M&Ms
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a medium or large bowl, lightly whisk the egg. Whisk the sugars and vanilla in with the egg until combined. Set aside to let sugars dissolve a bit.
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- Measure out the remaining ingredients. (I like to spray my measuring cup before adding peanut butter.) Stir the peanut butter into the sugar mixture until smooth. Then stir in the salt and baking soda.
- Working with about 1 Tbsp of dough for each cookie, place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Lightly flatten the balls with the palm of your hand. If using toppings, gently press the toppings onto the top of each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating half way through. Edges should be set and starting to brown slightly. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes. Transfer to wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Results may vary depending on the type of peanut butter you use.
