Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour Measure properly by spooning into the cup.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (stirred, smooth)
  • 1/3 cup sugar-free sweetener of choice (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature) Use room temperature for better mixing.
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Optional Additions

  • 1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts or sugar-free chocolate chips Optional for added texture.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • In a bowl, whisk the almond flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the peanut butter, sugar-free sweetener, eggs, melted coconut oil (or butter), and vanilla until smooth.
  • Stir the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until a soft dough forms. If too sticky, chill for 10–15 minutes.

Baking

  • Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough, placing them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet.
  • Flatten each ball gently with a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. The centers will remain soft but will firm up as they cool.

Cooling

  • Allow cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For clean slicing or shaping, chill the dough for 15 minutes before baking. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, up to 10 days in the refrigerator, or freeze for up to 3 months. If you want to add variations, try a streusel topping or use almond butter instead of peanut butter.
