Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

In exasperation he said "If you are going to keep treating me like a guinea pig with all these recipes, I want peanut butter cookies!!! And not that funny free stuff either - I want gluten. Don't worry, I won't share them with you."

He is no fan of tapioca flour... But I am on a mission to find ways to make food as good if not better .... I am on a mission to fool everyone. So I picked up some all natural peanut butter and I went through my cook books. I had every intention of making up 3 different batches... That is until I measured the peanut butter out for the first batch and realized I only had enough to make one... So I made it count!

Ingredients

4 cups Almond Flour
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp fine grain sea salt
1 egg, beaten
1 1/3 cup Chunky All Natural Peanut Butter - with salt
1/2 cup Maple Syrup
Orange Vanilla Sugar

Instructions

1
Preheat Oven to 350 f. Mix the first 3, dry, ingredients. Fold in the beaten egg, peanut butter and maple syrup. Roll dough into balls. Flatten with a cup dipped in Orange Vanilla Sugar and then mark with a fork dipped in the same sugar. Bake for 10-12 minutes depending on how browned you like them. This recipe makes 3 dozen cookies.

Oh and that he...He has no idea about the almond (GF) flour....

Bake 1 sheet at a time for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the sheet 1/2 way through the baking period. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a minute. Using a spatula, transfer the delicate cookie to a wine bottle or rolling pin. Allow to sit until cooled. This step gives the cookie their curved shape, making them a perfect companion to coffee icecream or chocolate mousse.

My cookies were a little thicker than ideal. As a result, this recipe calls for less flour.
