PEANUT BUTTER + HONEY COOKIES

2/11/2013

5 Comments

 
We are always testing out interesting new recipes we find on Pinterest.  The other day we came across some cookies that were gluten-free and did not contain any grains and actually  looked good, so we tried 'em.  Peanut butter cookies with seriously only 4 simple ingredients?!?  We were completely surprised when we ended up LOVING them!  Plus, the recipe says it only has 36 calories per cookies..can't beat that for a sweet treat. [Note: these do not contain cane sugar, but plenty of honey for sweetening that will certainly raise blood sugar levels]

Ingredients: 
1 Cup Peanut Butter 
1 Cup Honey 
1 TSP Baking Soda 
1 Egg 

Optional - Add some Cacoa (or coco) powder to add chocolatey flavor. It also adds some thickening to consistency. 

Mix the peanut butter + honey first, then add an egg and baking soda.  You can either try to put them in sloppy balls like cookies or spread the mixture all out on a cookie sheet.  Bake for 10 minutes on 350 degrees. They’re delicious & soft! .... a healthier version of peanut butter cookies :) Enjoy!

Hi Zowie,
They wont look or even feel done, but once they do cool they harden up a bit. They will still be a different texture than regular cookies since they don't have any flour to fluff them up. They almost become sponge like but trust me they are amazing!! hope you liked 'em!

Just wondering...if I add some coco for a chocolatey flavor, how much would you recommend using/adding? I'm not much of a baker, so I need all the help I can get! Thanks!

Hi Debb - I added some cocoa powder to thicken up the mix a bit and it added some chocolately flavor. It was much, only about a medium size spoon full. Hope that works! Enjoy

I'm making these now. But I'm looking at the calories on the ingredients and I can't see how they are only 36 calories per cookie. Any ideas?
