Whole Wheat Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
Report
These whole wheat peanut butter cookies are everything we love about the classic peanut butter cookie, with a healthier twist! They're tender with a slight chew and are incredibly delicious. It's an easy recipe that kids love (and we feel better about serving), and they're ready in just 22 minutes!
