Peanut Butter Cookies
By: Shana Archibald
Ingredients
□ 1 cup creamy peanut butter (natural will work too)
□ 1 cup honey
□ 1 large egg
□ 1½ teaspoon vanilla extract
□ ½ teaspoon salt
□ ½ teaspoon baking soda
□ 2 cups flour (you can also use whole wheat flour)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 3
In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the peanut butter and honey. Beat until completely incorporated.
Step 4
Stir in egg and vanilla.
Step 5
Add the salt, baking soda and flour. Mix until it comes together to form a dough.
Step 6
Shape dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon of dough). Place balls on the prepared sheet.
Step 7
Use a fork to lightly press each dough ball down.
Step 8
Bake for 10-12 minutes until cookies become slightly golden brown.
Note:
Be careful to not over-bake! Honey burns much more easily than sugar.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and place cookies on a wire rack to cool.
