Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies



          After all those fancy, decorated cookies, I decided to make a shaggy, rustic looking, easy cookie you can enjoy this season.

      Winter is not exactly here yet. The temperature was in the 60s for the last couple of days, no snow in forecast for another week or so.

      But when the white fluff will come - I will be ready. With those cookies on a platter. :)

      This is an easy cookie ( 4 ingredients and 15 minutes tops to prepare ) for peanut butter lovers and gluten-free bakers.

      You can definitely relax while making this one. No perfection needed.

     Oh, and did I say they are gluten-free?

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
adapted from Joy the Baker

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp baking soda


Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line your baking sheet with silpat or parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine peanut butter and sugar. Add egg and soda. Mix until everything is combined. Scoop the dough with a teaspoon and roll into balls. Place them all on your prepared cookie sheet. Flatten the balls with a fork.
Bake for 10 minutes. Cool in a sheet for a minute or two before placing them on a cooling rack.
Easy - peasy!




       This cookie will satisfy your peanut butter craving.

       For chunky version, use the chunky peanut butter or add some chopped peanuts.




Enjoy!
