Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
Yield: 10 cookies
Flourless peanut butter cookies only contain a few ingredients and are incredibly easy to make. The cookies have a soft and chewy texture with crisp edges and contain no flour. This flourless peanut butter cookie recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free, and mixer-free!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup (258 g) creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar plus more for rolling the cookies
- 1 (1) large egg room temperature
- ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) vanilla extract
- ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) baking powder
- ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) salt
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Mix the ingredients until they are well combined, smooth, and a soft cookie dough forms.
- Portion the cookie dough using a large cookie scoop (3 tablespoons) and place the cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill the cookie dough for 20 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ (177℃). Line baking sheet pans with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
- If desired, gently roll the chilled cookie dough balls in a few tablespoons of granulated sugar. The cookie dough will be soft. Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet pans, allowing room for spreading. Use the back of a fork to create a hashtag pattern in the top of the cookies.
- Bake the cookies for about 12 to 13 minutes until the edges are set. Cool the cookies on the pan for 2 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container or resealable storage bag at room temperature for 2 to 3 days.
