Calories: 214kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups almond flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup butter , softened to room temperature
- 1 ¼ cups creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line 2 large baking sheets with baking parchment and preheat your oven to 175c / 340f.
- In a mixing bowl, mix the almond flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth and creamy.
- Mix in brown and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Now, add the almond flour mixture and mix until the dough comes together (the dough should be thick).
- Spoon a tablespoon of the batter and roll it into a ball. Keep making balls, then arrange them on the baking sheet.
- Use a fork to press on each ball, making a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool for 10 minutes, then serve.
Notes
I recommend wetting the fork before making the criss-cross pattern so it doesn't stick to your dough.
