JEANNE’S PEANUT
BUTTER COOKIES
These soft peanut butter cookies are made in memory of my dear
friend, Jeanne Lobsinger. This recipe
makes a ton of tasty cookies – great to wake up to in the morning to enjoy with
a cup of tea or coffee. I confess I ate at least 2 cookies worth in raw
dough! I have another confession to make.
The original recipe required 1/2 cup (125 mL) of butter and I simply
forgot to add it. The cookies turned out
great anyway as there is a lot of fat in peanut butter, however, I think they
could use some butter in them, so I am writing them up with a minimal amount.. These cookies are thus a lower calorie
cookie. Bonus! I didn’t find that these cookies needed salt,
but if you do want to add some….add only 1/8 tsp (0.5 mL).
The sweetener tables for all the most common scenarios are in my cookbooks for your convenience. For example, ¾ cup sugar sweetness (not ¾ cup liquid) using my bottle of sucralose from the EZ-Sweetz brand (whether the smaller one of 0.5 oz or the bigger yellow bottle of 2 oz – Zero carbs) would be 18 or 36 drops respectively. Here is an article and video about the sweeteners. Part 1. There is another article and video here: Part 2.
2 eggs
1 cup peanut butter (250 mL)
(I like Skippy®
Creamy Natural)
3 tbsp butter, softened (45 mL)
2 tbsp powdered sweetener, OR (45 mL)
3 coffee sweetener packets
1 tsp molasses (5 mL)
1 tsp vanilla extract (5 mL)
1 tsp baking powder (5 mL)
Preheat
the oven to 350°F (180°C).
In
bowl of mixer or food processor, combine eggs, peanut butter, liquid sweetener, powdered sweetener, OR coffee sweetener, molasses and vanilla extract; mix well.
In
medium bowl, combine Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2 and baking powder. Add to wet ingredients; process. Roll dough
into balls using about 2 tsp (10 mL) per ball.
Place on greased baking sheet. Flatten
each cookie with a fork in a crisscross pattern. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until very light
golden brown underneath. (This took 9
minutes in my oven). Store in a covered
container at room temperature.
