This unique recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic peanut butter cookie by completely eliminating flour. Yes, you read that right! These cookies are made with a simple combination of pantry staples, making them perfect for those with dietary restrictions or anyone looking to explore healthier baking options.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons water
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar. Mix thoroughly using a large spoon.
- Add the beaten egg, water, and vanilla extract, stirring until well combined.
- Instead of rolling the dough into balls, simply drop spoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet using a tablespoon.
- Flatten each cookie with a fork dipped lightly in water to prevent sticking. If it’s the holiday season, add a festive touch by sprinkling the cookies with sugar sprinkles. Otherwise, leave them plain.
- Bake for 10 minutes, then allow the cookies to cool slightly before transferring them to a wire rack.
- Serve with a cold glass of milk and enjoy!
