Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies

Chris and I are trying to be “good” for the most part, but it is nice to have a little sweet treat every now and then. If I can find a little way to make them “healthier,” then why not? As long as it doesn’t take away on flavor. These peanut butter cookies deliver!!!

Now, I made this recipe based on the amount of peanut butter I had left in the jar, which was 3/4 of a cup. You want to proportion your coconut sugar to your peanut butter. Basically if you want to do a cup of peanut butter, do a cup of palm sugar. Got me?

What You Need

3/4 cup peanut butter

3/4 cup coconut sugar

splash of vanilla extract (maybe 1/2 teaspoon??)

1 egg

What You Do

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line cookie sheet with parchment paper

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.

Drop into balls on cookie sheet

Press down at least twice with a fork

Bake 10 minutes

Let them sit on cookie sheet after you pull them out for a few more minutes to finish cooking

These cookies come out so soft and perfect!!!!

These sound so amazing! Chris and I both have been craving peanut butter lately, so this might be exactly what I need to make! Even better that they’re a little bit healthier too!

All of your low carb meals recently are so inspiring to me because all I ever want to eat is carbs. I have all of these ingredients, so this is definitely tempting me– I love how easy it is to change the recipe for how big of a batch you want to make.
