3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

Okay, let's be honest. This isn't the healthiest recipe in terms of calories, however, it is healthier than running to the store and buying a bag of cookies full of lots of "bad" things (you've likely heard that rant by now). It's also a gluten free offering, so I am going to justify posting it (plus look at the alternate way of cooking these for the healthier version). They are delicious as is.....Just eat in moderation :)



Peanut Butter Cookies
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup white sugar (I sometimes use 1/2 white, 1/2 brown)
  • 1 egg
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine above ingredients until smooth.
3. Drop by tbsp-fulls onto cookie sheet and lightly push down with fork. Bake in preheated oven for 6-8 minutes, until just starting to brown (don't overbake, you want these chewy!).
4. Serve with a big glass of milk and ENJOY!

*If you want to make this a more diet friendly cookie, use lowfat peanut butter and 2 egg whites, skipping the yolk*
