Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Optional: chocolate chips or chopped peanuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and smooth.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until combined.
Step 4
Sprinkle in the baking soda and salt. Continue mixing until you have a smooth and cohesive dough.
Step 5
If you'd like to add chocolate chips or chopped peanuts, fold them into the dough at this point.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Gently flatten each dough ball with the tines of a fork, pressing down in a crisscross pattern to create the classic peanut butter cookie look.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden. The centers will appear slightly underdone but will continue to set as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your delicious gluten-free peanut butter cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
