What Are Peanut Butter Cookies?

Peanut butter is an ideal ingredient for quick and easy keto breakfasts since it is rich in fibre, healthy natural fats, and lends a rich, earthy flavour to even the simplest recipes.
Peanut Butter Cookie Ingredients
You'll only need 3 simple ingredients for these delicious peanut butter cookies!
- Peanut butter - natural unsalted peanut butter that has no added sugars. Check the nutritional information carefully because lots of store-bought peanut butter have added sugar.
- Erythritol - to help add sweetness to the cookies, we'll use Erythritol. Feel free to substitute with any of your preferred sugar-free sweeteners.
- Egg - one large, preferably free-range egg at room temperature to help bind everything together.
How To Make Keto Peanut Butter Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, egg, and Erythritol.
- Use a spatula (or your hands!) to mix the ingredients together thoroughly until it forms cookie dough.
- Shape the dough into balls in the palms of your hands. I made 15 cookies with this recipe, and I feel they were a perfect size.
- Transfer the balls onto the lined baking tray leaving space in between each ball.
These cookies really turned out delicious and I'm sure you're going to love them, enjoy 🙂
