The Greatest Peanut Butter Cookies (No Sugar & No Flour)

Sugarless and Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies made with no flour or added sugar that are delicious! the perfect Keto-Friendly, low carb dessert to enjoy while dieting or watching what you eat.


Ingredients:

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup Splenda; or your favorite sugar substitute
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tsp. water

Instructions:


  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat together the egg, sugar substitute, baking powder and vanilla for about a minute.
  3. Add the peanut butter and water and beat together.
  4. The mixture will be pretty dry; just make sure the peanut butter is blended in with the other ingredients.
  5. Measure out a heaping teaspoon of batter for each cookie and place on a baking tray that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray or lined with parchment paper.
  6. Then using a fork, make indentations into each cookie. Spray the fork with cooking spray so it doesn’t stick to the cookie.
  7. Bake 12 – 15 minutes until cookies feel firm and are slightly browned.
  8. Transfer the cookies to a baking rack and cool.


TIPS FOR BAKING PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES:


  • The mixture comes together quickly. It may be a little dry, but just make sure the peanut butter is blended in completely.
  • Use a fork to make crisscross indentations into each cookie.
  • If you were baking traditional peanut butter cookies, you would dip your fork in flour to help the dough not stick to the fork, but since these are no-flour cookies, I found spraying the fork with non-stick cooking spray helps.
