Vegan peanut butter recipe

Crunchy vegan peanut butter cookies that are ready in less than 30 minutes
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 25 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup sugar (granulated)
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C. Line the baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Cooking spray can be used, too.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, almond milk, and vanilla. Mix well until smooth.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl, and then gradually add to the wet ingredients.
  • Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add some almond milk, one tablespoon at a time until you get the right texture.
  • Roll the dough into balls and place them on your tray. Further, flatten with a fork to create a pattern.
  • Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes - or until they brown.
  • Remove cookies from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Some peanut butter brands are loaded with sugar. If that is the case, adjust your sugar measurement to your comfort.
  • The cookies must turn brown before you remove them from the oven, or else they will remain gooey, even after cooling off.
