Low Carb, 3 Ingredient, Peanut Butter Cookies

A simple peanut butter cookie recipe that even kiddos can master.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar free peanut butter (I like this brand)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sweetener (I like this brand)
  • 1 large egg (room temp is best but not necessary)

Optional Chocolate Drizzle:

  • 3 oz sugar free chocolate (I like this brand, code: KINDKETOMAMA for 10% off)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (I like this brand)


Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit and prepare a large cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl combine peanut butter, erythritol, and egg. Continue stirring until completely combined.
  3.  Roll dough into 2 inch balls and flatten gently with the palm of your hand. Because these cookies contain no gluten they will have a bit of a crumble to them and the edges will crack a little. Don’t worry too much about it.
  4. Completely optional, use a fork to make a cross pattern, as in traditional peanut butter cookies.
  5. Bake for 13-15 minutes.
  6. If you’re drizzling with chocolate,  allow to cool completely then transfer to another cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top.
  7. While cookies are cooling. Melt chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave in 5 second increments or in a double boiler. Be careful not to scorch the chocolate by stirring constantly and removing from heat once completely melted.
  8. Using a spoon or a dish with a pour spout drizzle desired amount of melted chocolate over the cookie. I also like to sprinkle sea salt flakes on top.
  9. Optional: Place cookie sheet with cookies in freezer to allow chocolate to harden more quickly.
  10. Enjoy!
