Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (256 g) unsweetened natural peanut butter
- 1 large egg whisked
- 1/4 cup (59 ml) pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 350°F 177°C and prepare two cookie sheets by lining them with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- Combine peanut butter, the whisked egg, and maple syrup in a large bowl, stirring until fully blended and dough thickens.
- Use a tablespoon scoop to drop dough balls spaced two inches apart on the sheets, then press each ball lightly into a thick disk and create a criss-cross pattern using a fork.
- Bake for about 10 minutes until cookies crack slightly and surface looks dry.
- Allow cookies to cool completely on the sheets before removing.
Notes
- Make sure to use natural peanut butter that has no added oils
- This recipe will not work with the same with regular peanut butter
- This recipe works best with pure maple syrup
- Honey changes the texture of the cookies
- You don’t have to make the criss-cross pattern across the surface, but if you choose to leave it off, then flatten your cookies a little more to the thickness you want the final outcome to be before baking
- You can halve the recipe if you want to make less but you will need to make sure you only add half a whisked egg
- If you add a full egg, the cookies will turn out oily and have a gummy texture
