Equipment
- Blender
- Oven
- Chef's Knife
- Mixing Bowl
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener Golden
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup Skippy Creamy No-Sugar Added Peanut Butter
- 1 tsp water
- 0.5 tsp sea salt
- 0.33 cup chopped peanuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F/180C. This step is essential as it ensures that your cookies bake evenly and thoroughly.
- In a mixing bowl, use an electric beater to combine the egg, Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener, baking powder, and vanilla. Beat for about one minute until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.
- Add the peanut butter, water, and sea salt to the bowl. Beat again until everything is combined. The mixture will be a bit dry, but that’s normal; just ensure the peanut butter is fully integrated.
- If you are using chopped peanuts, chop them now and add them to the dough. Mix a few more times to distribute the nuts evenly.
- Prepare a large cookie sheet by covering it with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. This prevents sticking and keeps the bottom of your cookies from browning too much.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out the cookie batter. Roll each scoop into a ball and then gently flatten with a fork to create a crisscross pattern. I typically get about twenty small cookies from this recipe!
- Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 14 to 15 minutes. You’ll know they are done when they feel firm and have a slight golden color. The cookies will still be soft to the touch.
- Once baked, let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 30 minutes. This will help them firm up before you handle them.
- If you have extra cookies, store them in the freezer, but try to limit yourself to one at a time!
