QUICK & EASY GLUTEN-FREE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

This is one of the easiest cookie recipes around. Today, my good friend Maya stopped by to help make these. And, my friend Parker (also a 4th grader) directed the video for this episode, so be sure to check it out. SEE VIDEO RECIPE!

STEP ONE

In a bowl, mix 1 cup peanut butter (not the natural kind because that has too much liquid), 1 organic egg, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup of Pamela’s Gluten-Free Baking Mix. We mixed ours by hand.

STEP TWO

Make small to medium-sized round balls with the dough. We made nice mini ones that were about one-inch in diameter. Place them on a cookie sheet.

STEP THREE


Dip a fork into white sugar and make a criss-cross pattern onto your cookie, flattening it a little. See the photos below. (Psssttt…try not to eat all the cookie dough while doing this!. I know, it’s hard not to!)

STEP FOUR

Bake cookies in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for 10 to 20 minutes depending on the size of your cookies. They should look slightly golden brown on the bottom half, and firm on top. Make sure to let the cookies cool before trying to move them or they will crumble.

STEP FIVE

Enjoy with friends!
