5-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies (Gluten-Free)

These peanut butter cookies are a gluten-free version of the classic treat: chewy, dense, melt-in-you-mouth good!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • Coarse sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients until well combined. Spoon dough by the tablespoon onto prepared cookie sheets, spacing them an inch apart. Using a fork, press on dough in two directions to form a crosshatch pattern. Sprinkle coarse salt on top of the cookies.
  • Bake until cookies are golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly, then let cool completely on wire racks.

Notes

*You can dip the fork in sugar before crosshatching to prevent dough from sticking to the fork.
