LOW-CARB MAKEOVER ON THE CLASSIC PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE
This recipe is an amazing low-carb treat for those of us who are peanut butter lovers! These cookies are chewy with so much flavor and you’d never know they are gluten-free, grain-free and low-carb! They are very easy to whip up and use the typical low-carb/keto ingredients.
WHAT TYPE OF PEANUT BUTTER DO WE USE
Our favorite natural peanut butter is Good Life Peanut Butter for a couple of reasons. The first reason why we love this product is because the ingredient list is amazing…peanuts and salt. Good Life Peanut Butter contains no added sugar or unhealthy oils that most peanut butter contains. The second reason we love it is because you do not need to stir this product like most other natural peanut butters. The third reason is because it tastes amazing and bakes beautifully in recipes.
HOW TO MAKE THESE COOKIES
Preheat oven to 350° F.
In a medium bowl mix melted Kerrygold butter, Good Life Peanut Butter, Swerve Brown, and eggs until very smooth; set aside.
In a separate bowl mix almond flour, baking powder (you can use my recipe here), baking soda, and Real Salt until well combined.
Add flour mixture to butter mixture and mix until combined. Add Lily’s Chocolate Chips to the combined mixture and stir until the chocolate chips are well incorporated. In the past I have always used the dark chocolate chips but my kids love the new milk chocolate chips!
On a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper, using the medium sized cookie scoop, drop cookie dough leaving 1 inch between each cookie.
Take another piece of parchment paper and lay on top of the cookies. Grab another half sheet pan and set on top of the cookies and parchment paper and gently press down so each cookie dough ball slightly flattens. Not too much or your cookies will be too flat. If you don't flatten them at all they will be too mounded.
Bake for 9-11 minutes at 350° F. Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes before placing them on a cooling rack. Cool completely before digging in! Oh my deliciousness!!
HOW TO MAKE CHANGES TO MEET THOSE PERSONAL PREFERENCES
Do you like your cookies a little crispier? Flatten them and bake a little longer.
Do you like those fork marks on your peanut butter cookie like your grandma used to do? Flatten each ball with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern.
Are you a peanut butter and chocolate lover? Add 1 to 2 cups of your favorite low-carb chocolate chips.
