Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Using a spatula to mix the peanut butter, sugar, and egg together in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
  3. Using a 1.5 tablespoon-size spring loaded cookie scoop, scoop 15 cookies on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten each into a smooth round shape and then use the back of a fork, making a criss-cross pattern.
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
  5. Let sit for about 2 to 3 minutes on the pan, then transfer to a cooling rack until completely cool.

Notes

  • Storage: When the cookies are completely cool, they can be stored in an airtight container or frozen.
  • Freezing Instructions: You can freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months. Place them on a baking sheet in the freezer until they are completely frozen. Then transfer them to freezer bags or an airtight container. To reheat the frozen cookies, bake in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes, or until until warmed through.
  • Or, you can make the dough ahead of time, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and freeze. When ready to bake, allow the dough to thaw in the fridge until you’re ready to form and bake the cookies.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutions:
  • Serving Size: One serving is 2 cookies.
  • To make it vegan, substitute the egg for a flax egg, which is made by mixing together 1 tablespoon flaxseed with 2 tablespoons water and letting it rest for 5 minutes.
  • Instead of peanut butter, you could try these with other nut butters, but they may be more crumbly.
