Equipment

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all purpose gluten-free flour
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground golden flaxseeds
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Add all-purpose flour, oat flour, ground flaxseeds, baking powder, and salt to a mixing bowl and stir.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, mix peanut butter and sugar with a handheld beater or whisk until fully combined. Add milk and vanilla, and continue mixing.
  • Slowly add in dry ingredients. You may have to mix with a fork or your hand, because the mixture will become crumbly.
  • Form the mixture into a ball, and scoop out balls with a tablespoon. Roll until they’re smooth and place about 2 inches apart from each other on the baking sheets.
  • Take a fork and lightly press until the balls are flattened, then perpendicularly again to make the classic crisscross pattern.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes, until just slightly golden. They should still be slightly soft and will harden as they cool, so don’t remove them from the sheet until after about 10 minutes.
  • Store in an airtight storage container for up to 5 days, so the cookies stay fresh.
