Ingredients
- makes 12-15 cookies
- 3/4 cup natural peanut butter*
- 1/3 cup of honey or maple syrup
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup chocolate chunks
- 1/4 tsp of baking powder
- 1/2 tsp of almond extract
- pinch of sea salt
- We used creamy peanut butter, but feel free to use crunchy! If you prefer to make this recipe peanut free, these cookies are just as delicious with almond butter!
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350° degrees. Add peanut butter to a large bowl and mix with a fork until soft. Add egg (already beaten), honey or maple syrup, baking powder, almond extract and sea salt and mix well. Continue to mix with a fork until all ingredients are well incorporated. Next, carefully fold in chocolate chunks. Use a teaspoon or mini ice cream scoop to measure out a small amount of dough to drop onto your pre-greased cookie sheet. Alternatively, line the cookie sheet with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. They’ll still be soft when you take them out of the oven, but will harden as they cool.
TIP: Keep these cookies on the smaller side. They are soft and don’t hold up as well if they are larger.
