3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe

These 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies combine creamy peanut butter, sugar, and egg into a smooth dough that is rolled into balls and flattened with a fork before baking. The result is a cookie with a slightly crisp exterior and chewy center, delivering straightforward peanut flavor with minimal fuss. Their simplicity and quick preparation make them a practical choice for a quick homemade treat.

Description

The 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies recipe uses only peanut butter, sugar, and egg to form a dough that is shaped into small balls. Pressing the balls with a fork creates a criss-cross pattern and spreads the cookies for even baking. Baking at 350°F for 10 minutes yields cookies that hold their shape with a tender bite inside.

The peanut butter imparts a familiar nutty richness, balanced by sugar’s sweetness, while the egg binds the ingredients. This recipe requires minimal mixing or preparation, making it suitable for quick baking sessions.

These cookies can be served as a snack or dessert without additional decorations or coatings, offering a pure peanut flavor experience. They can be adjusted with different peanut butters or sugar types if desired.
