Ingredients
- 1 cup Sunflower seed butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sunflower seed butter, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3
Mix everything until well combined and a cohesive dough forms. If using chocolate chips, fold them into the dough at this stage.
Step 4
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Step 5
Use a fork to gently press down on each cookie in a crisscross pattern, slightly flattening them.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies start to turn golden. Avoid overbaking as they will firm up as they cool.
Step 7
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve and enjoy your homemade sunflower seed butter cookies!
