Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsalted butter and peanut butter. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and milk until the wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
Step 7
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into small balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one.
Step 8
Using a fork, gently press down twice on each dough ball, creating a crisscross pattern on the top.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The center should still be soft but set.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Enjoy your homemade peanut butter biscuits with a glass of milk or your favorite cup of tea!
