Instructions to Whip These Up!
Now that you got your ingredients ready, it’s time to get to baking! Follow these steps for cookie perfection:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This helps to keep those cookies from sticking and makes cleanup a breeze!
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and brown sugar. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the egg to the mixture and blend everything together until it forms a consistent dough. It’ll be thick, but that’s just how we like it!
- Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave some space in between each cookie because they will spread out a little as they bake.
- For a touch of style, you can use a fork to press down gently on the cookies, creating that classic crisscross design on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes. You want them to be set but still soft, so keep an eye on them. Let ‘em cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
And there you have it! Delicious, healthy peanut butter cookies that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth without all the guilt. Pair them with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage, and enjoy the goodness!
