Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies




1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon baking soda
Change Measurements: US Metric

Preheat oven to 350* and grease cookie sheets. Beat together peanut butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add beaten egg and baking soda to peanut butter mixture and beat until well combined. Roll 1 teaspoon of dough into a ball and place on cookie sheet. Place dough balls one inch apart on cookie sheet and flatten with tines of fork making a cross pattern. Bake until puffed and a golden pale, about 10 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheet about 2 minutes and then transfer with spatula to rack to cool.

May be kept in air tight container at room temperature for 5 days. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.

  1. The first version I saw of this recipe did not include baking soda. I think it makes a difference. They are great tasting peanuty cookies. And it's nice to have an easy recipe to rely on, especially for people who are new to the diet. Thanks for participating in Gluten-Free Wednesdays.
