These peanut butter cookies use a short three-ingredient dough. Vanilla extract can be added for extra flavor.
Ingredients
- ½ cup peanut butter
- ½ cup powdered erythritol or Swerve
- 1 egg
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the peanut butter, powdered sweetener, egg, and optional vanilla in a bowl. Mix with a spatula until well combined.
- Use a 1½-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion the dough. Form each portion into a ball and place it on the prepared sheet.
- Press each ball with a fork to make a crisscross pattern.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the tops are set and golden and the centers reach 160°F (71°C).
- Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes.
