Peanut Butter cookies Gluten Free
Peanut Butter Cookies Gluten Free
One cup creamy peanut butter (I like crunchy instead)
One cup white sugar
One teaspoon baking powder
One egg
One cup white sugar
One teaspoon baking powder
One egg
Preheat the oven to 350°.
Cream the peanut butter and sugar in a bowl. Beat in the baking powder. Add the egg. Mix until it is all well combined.
You can use a teaspoon and drop cookies on pan or you can make balls and roll them in white sugar then put them on the pan.
Bake in the oven for about ten minutes. You will know the cookies are done when they feel coherent, but still a little soft. Take the tray out of the oven and let the cookies rest for at least five minutes. Afterwards, carefully transfer them to a cooling rack. After ten minutes or so, they will have hardened and be glistening with sugar.
Eat them.
Makes ten to twelve cookies.
