Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Spoon or spatula
- Baking Sheet
- Fork for pressing cookies
- Parchment Paper optional, but helpful
Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter no sugar added
- 1 cup Swerve Confectioners sugar
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, Swerve confectioners sweetener, and egg. Stir until a dough forms and everything is well incorporated.
- Roll into small balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Use a fork to press a crisscross pattern on each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the cookies are set.
- Allow cookies to cool on the pan for a few minutes before moving.
Notes
- You can use regular no sugar added peanut butter or natural peanut butter.
- If you're aiming for cleaner ingredients, natural peanut butter is a great option.
- The confectioners-style sweetener is key here. It helps thicken the dough and creates a better cookie texture than granulated.
- Cookies will be soft when they come out of the oven but will firm up as they cool.
- Avoid overtaking to keep them soft and chewy.
