Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Cookies


This is probably one of the easiest recipes that produce the most wonderful peanut butter cookies, that you’ll ever encounter.

They’re also gluten-free and simply full of peanut-ty goodness.

GLUTEN-FREE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
Makes 48
Adapted from Joy the Baker – Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients
100 g (½ c) turbinado sugar*
120 g (½ c) brown sugar*
280 g (1 c) unsalted smooth or chunky peanut butter^, at room temperature
1 large egg
1 t baking soda

* If you don’t have turbinado/brown sugar at hand, you can use granulated white.

^ Try and use peanut butter that only contains peanuts - the cookies will hold up better for it.

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Line 1-2 baking trays with parchment paper.

2. In a stand mixer, blend together the peanut butter and sugar until well incorporated. Add the baking soda and mix until combined.

3. Divide the mix into 48 balls and place onto the prepared baking trays. Flatten each ball with the prongs of a fork, then bake for 10 minutes.

4. Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for 2-3 minutes, then feel free to devour them at your leisure. Enjoy!
