Description
These 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies 🥜 are chewy, sweet, and unbelievably simple — made without refined sugar, eggs, or dairy! With just peanut butter, maple syrup, and almond flour, you’ll have a batch of soft cookies in 15 minutes flat.
Ingredients
1 cup natural peanut butter (unsweetened, creamy)
⅓ cup maple syrup (or honey if not vegan)
½ cup almond flour
Optional:
½ tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
¼ cup dark chocolate chips or chopped peanuts
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, mix peanut butter and maple syrup until smooth and creamy.
3. Add almond flour and stir until a thick dough forms.
4. Scoop tablespoon portions onto the baking sheet and flatten each with a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown.
6. Cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
Notes
For crispier cookies, bake an extra 2 minutes and cool completely before storing.
If dough feels sticky, chill it for 10 minutes before shaping.
Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
