Ingredients
- 1½ cups fine ground almond flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt (see note)
- ½ cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter (see note)
- ½ cup maple syrup
Optional: For Crispier Cookies
- 2 tablespoons oat flour take out 2 tablespoons of the almond flour and sub with this oat flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F / 175 C.
- Put flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisk well to remove clumps and combine.
- Make a well in the middle and add peanut butter and maple syrup.
- Stir to get everything mixed well.
- Form into balls and put on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
- Using a fork, make a criss cross pattern on the top of the cookies as you press down the balls.
- Bake for 13 minutes. Until just beginning to brown on the edges. They cook more as they cool, if you overbake they will be dry.
Notes
- If your peanut butter is dry, you will not get cookies that spread as well. You could add a touch of oil to get it creamy.
- If your peanut butter has salt, you may not need as much.
