Ingredients
Peanut Butter Cookies No Eggs
- ½ cup smooth salted peanut butter (128g)
- ⅓ cup butter, softened (2.6oz) or vegan butter
- ⅔ cup white sugar (134g) or substitute half brown sugar
- 1⅓ cups all-purpose flour (160g)
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 4 Tbsp milk of choice dairy or nondairy (60mL)
Optional
- 2 Tbsp mix-ins of choice (nuts, chocolate chips, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- In a bowl, cream together peanut butter, butter, and sugar with a hand mixer until fluffy and pale in color, scraping down sides of the bowl as needed.
- Separately, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add dry ingredients into the wet mixture and beat with mixer until combined. (The dough should be soft and crumbly.)
- Add milk and mix with a spatula, pressing dough together. (If dough feels too sticky at this point, refrigerate 15-20 minutes.)
- Optional: Add 2 Tbsp mix-ins of choice and fold into dough.
- Use a 1-Tbsp cookie scoop to portion dough, roll into a ball with hands, and flatten slightly to form a small disc. Transfer to lined and greased baking sheets.
- Press down on each cookie with a fork to create the classic crisscross pattern.
- Bake 12-15 minutes. (12-13 minutes for softer cookies, 14-15 minutes for crispier cookies.)
- Allow to cool 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack.
- Yields ~30 eggless peanut butter cookies (using 1-Tbsp scoop).
