Grain Free Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies Recipes

GLUTEN-FREE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (FLOURLESS, DAIRY-FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.
• Mix the peanut butter with sugar until sugar has dissolved.
• Add in the vanilla essence and egg, and then stir until you get a homogeneous cookie dough.
• Using a teaspoon or a cookie scoop, scoop one tablespoon of cookie dough and then roll it between both palms until you form a golf-ball sized ball. Repeat until you have used up all the cookie dough (you should get between 12 to 14 balls).
• Place cookie dough balls in one single layer on the baking paper, leaving about 2 inches of space between each of them (you may need to bake the cookies in 2 batches depending on the size of your baking sheet)
• Use the back of a fork to press down the balls in a criss-cross manner to flatten the dough slightly.
• Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until they turn a lighter brown (they will look slightly undercooked, but that's fine as they will continue cooking with the residual heat).
• Allow cookies to cool at least 20 minutes before removing them from the pan (this is important because if cookies are still too hot, they will break when you move them).

GLUTEN-FREE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (VEGAN OPTION)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 °F (170 °C) and line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper. Position the oven rack to the lower third of the oven.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add all the ingredients. Use an electric mixer on low to combine it. At first it will be very thin but after about 30 seconds of mixing, it should be firm enough to roll into balls. The dough may or may not feel oily.
• Divide into 8 50-gram balls and place about 4" apart on the prepared cookie sheet. They spread a lot!
• Bake immediately (it seems as though letting them sit for a while affects how they bake up). Bake for 11-14 minutes or until they've crackled nicely and no longer appear wet in the middle (I needed 14 minutes but you may need less if you use a dark pan, make smaller cookies, etc.). Let them cool completely on the baking sheet (where they'll continue to bake). If you don't let them cool on the baking sheet, the bottoms of the cookies likely won't be baked enough.
• Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
