It seems the latest trend is to curtail white carbohydrates and sugar and replace them with more plant-based foods--or to make our food more "paleo." These peanut butter cookies are flour-less and instead of using white sugar, I used coconut sugar. While there is still a form of sugar in these, I'm not going to pretend these cookies are completely diet safe but the fact they have no flour should be one victory worth celebrating!
Ingredients:
1 cup Peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
3/4 cup Coconut sugar
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 Egg
3/4 tsp Baking soda
1/4 tsp Salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix the peanut butter and coconut sugar thoroughly together. Add the vanilla, egg, baking soda and salt and mix until completely blended. Taking tablespoon size bits of the dough, roll into a ball and place onto the baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
