  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 12 cookies 1x
  • Diet: Gluten Free

Description

Soft, chewy peanut butter cookies made with just three simple ingredients. No flour, no fuss—just quick, delicious cookies with rich peanut butter flavor in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix peanut butter, sugar, and egg until well combined.
  3. Scoop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
  5. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are set but centers are soft.
  6. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Do not overbake—cookies will firm up as they cool.
  • Chill dough for 10–15 minutes if it’s too sticky.
  • Use a fork dipped in sugar to prevent sticking while pressing the cookies.
