Keto Peanut Butter
Cookies
Summary: I’ve used this recipe on a multitude of occasions for our Saturday store mornings. Even though these cookies are a tad crumbly, they are packed with savory peanut flavor. Furthermore, they are sugar-free and able to fit into a ketogenic diet. This recipe makes about 30 cookies.
Ingredients:
-
1 jar Crazy Richard’s chunky peanut butter*
-
2 eggs
-
1 egg yolk
-
2 tsp vanilla extract
-
½ cup Splenda or monk fruit sweetener
-
½ to 1 tsp kosher salt (To taste. I like mine salty.)
-
(optional) a little more kosher salt for sprinkling
*I use this brand of peanut butter because it has no added salt or sugar.
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl until the dough is a cohesive mass.
3. Using a tablespoon measure, scoop out balls of dough onto a foil-lined cookie sheet.
4. Roll the balls into spheres, and then use a fork to create a crosshatch patter on each.
5. Place the tray in the preheated oven for 8 minutes
6. (Optional) Sprinkle a little more salt on top of the cookies as a delectable garnish.
7. Cool for 3 minutes and then move the cookies onto a rack to cool the rest of the way.
8. Enjoy the delicious cookies.
