About Homemade peanut butter cookies

Homemade Peanut Butter Cookies are a classic American treat, beloved for their rich, nutty flavor and soft, crumbly texture. These cookies typically consist of simple ingredients: peanut butter, sugar, flour, eggs, and a pinch of salt, though some versions include vanilla extract or baking powder for added flavor and texture. Peanut butter is an excellent source of healthy fats, protein, and essential vitamins like Vitamin E, but paired with sugar, these cookies can be high in calories, added sugars, and fats. While they offer moments of indulgence, they can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth or sharing during holidays, their homemade nature allows for adjustments to reduce sugar or incorporate whole-grain flours for a healthier spin on this timeless favorite.
