Easy 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies 

***Low Carb/Keto/Vegan


1 cup peanut butter See post for substitutions

2/3 cup granulated sweetener of choice

1 large egg * See below for eggless/vegan option

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper or silicone mat cookie sheet.


In a large mixing bowl, combine all your ingredients and mix very well. 


Form 12 balls of cookie dough and place on the lined pan. Press each cookie in a circular shape and press down with two forks. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until golden on the edges.


Remove from the oven and let cool completely. If desired, drizzle in chocolate and peanuts.


* For a vegan/eggless option, substitute this for ground chia seeds. Start with 3 tablespoons and add an extra tablespoon only if your batter is too thin.
