Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (from a can)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter powder
  • 1 cup gluten free oat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Pinch of salt (only if your peanut butter is unsalted)

Extras:

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In one bowl, stir together all the wet ingredients. In a second bowl, stir together all the dry ingredients. Add the wet ingredients into the dry and stir to combine.
  3. Using a heaping tablespoon of the batter, roll it onto a ball and place it on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, leaving about 3 inches between cookies. Use your hand to gently flatten the cookies into plump round discs. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes. Move them to a cooling rack and let them cool completely.
  4. Once the cookies are cooled, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds. Once the chocolate is melted, use a spoon or a piping bag to drizzle it over the cookies. Let the chocolate set and then serve.

Notes

If you want a faster recipe, just throw the chocolate chips into the batter rather than drizzling on top! Its equally delicious and easier.
