3 Ingredient Healthier No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies
These no bake peanut butter cookies are soft, chewy and easy to make. No baking or cooking required. Just 3 ingredients and they don't contain any wheat flour, eggs, refined sugar, dairy or oil.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (128g) unsweetened natural peanut butter with no added oils
- 2 tbsp (1 fl oz/30ml) maple syrup
- 1/2 cup (45g) superfine blanched almond flour
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add all ingredients to a large bowl. Mix with a spatula until a thick dough forms. Once the mixture forms a dough, use your hands to knead the dough a few times to fully incorporate the almond flour. If your dough seems too soft, you can add a little more almond flour. Taste the dough and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Use a 1.5 tbsp cookie scoop to scoop the dough. Roll the dough pieces into smooth balls. Place cookie dough balls onto your prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart, and press down on each ball so that they form thick round disks, about 1/2 inch thick. If desired, use the back of a fork to make a criss-cross pattern on top of each cookie.
- Place the cookies into the fridge for about 1 hour (uncovered) to firm up further. The cookies won't change much but they should firm up enough so they are easy to hold. Store any uneaten cookies in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
- Almond flour note: If you are using a measuring cup to measure the almond flour, make sure to use a spoon to loosen the almond flour in the bag and then spoon the almond flour into your measuring cup, leveling off the top with a knife.
