- 3 Ingredient - CLASSIC PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
- VERSION EN ESPAΓOL AL FINAL DE LA PΓGINA -
Peanut Butter lovers around here? I am indeed! This is why this blog needs to have a Classic Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe!
So these 3-Ingredient healthy Peanut Butter Cookies are gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free and so yummy! It will take you 5 minutes to prepare them and 12 minutes to bake them, so in less than 30 minutes you have it!
DIABETIC DIET TIPο»Ώ
These healthy peanut butter cookies are a great option as a snack any time!
As you can see below, the macronutrients are pretty good. If you want to add protein content, feel free to add protein powder like I did in these almond butter cookies.
Since the fat content is the main macronutrient in these healthy cookies, the sugar content wonβt cause you blood sugar spikes, unless you eat them allβ¦but you wonβt do that because you will enjoy a couple of these at a time!
If I were you, I would try to make these cookies both ways (with and without protein) and see which one you prefer! We would love to know your feedback!

Cook Time - 12 minutes
Ready in - 30 minutes
Servings - 12-15 cookies
If you make 12 cookies, the macronutrients in each healthy cookie will be:
100kcal
4.7gr protein
2.1gr net carbs
1.6gr fiber
0.5gr sugars
8.8gr fats
* Take into account I have calculated these numbers based on using erythritol as a sweetener, if you use coconut sugar the numbers change a bit, like these:
123kcal
4.8gr protein
7.7gr net carbs
1.6gr fiber
6gr sugars
8.8gr fats
INGREDIENTS
1 cup or 200gr peanut butter (or nut butter of choice)
1/2 cup or 70gr of coconut sugar or erythritol or granulated sweetener of choice
1 whole egg
Optional: 1/2 tablespoon of vanilla extract
Optional: If you want to make these healthy cookies with extra protein content, you can add protein powder like in this recipe for almond butter cookies. I did not add protein for the peanut butter cookies.
STEPS
Pre heat oven to 350F/175C.
In a bowl, whisk the egg and mix together with the peanut butter and the vanilla extract.
Add the coconut sugar and mix until fully combined.
Roll the dough into 1.5inches/3cm balls, and place on a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Using the base of your palms or a fork, slightly flatten the balls to about 1/2 inch/1cm thick. Makes about 12 cookies.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool at least 10 minutes.
* Store in an air tight container at room temperature or fridge for 1 week.

Autora - LucΓa
PreparaciΓ³n - 5 minutos
Listo en - 30 minutos
Horno - 12 minutos
PorciΓ³n - 12-15 galletas
Si haces 12 galletas, cada una tendrΓ‘ los siguientes valores nutricionales:
100kcal
4.7gr proteΓna
2.1gr carbs netos
1.6gr fibra
0.5gr azΓΊcar
8.8gr grasa
* Ten en cuenta que he calculado estos valores basΓ‘ndome en haber usado eritritol como endulzante, si utilizas azΓΊcar de coco los valores cambiarΓ‘n a estos:
123kcal
4.8gr proteΓna
7.7gr carbs netos
1.6gr fibra
6gr azΓΊcar
8.8gr grasa
INGREDIENTES
1 taza o 200gr de mantequilla/crema de cacahuete
1/2 taza o 70gr de azΓΊcar de coco o eritritol o endulzante granulado preferido
1 huevo
Opcional: 1/2 cucharada de extracto de vainilla
Opcional: Si querΓ©is aΓ±adir contenido proteico a estas galletas saludables, podΓ©is aΓ±adir polvos de proteΓna como he hecho en esta receta de galletas de almendra. Yo esta vez no he aΓ±adido proteΓna para esta receta de galletas de crema de cacahuete.
PASOS
Pre calentar el horno a 175C.
En un bol, batir el huevo y mezclar con la mantequilla/crema de cacahuete.
AΓ±adir el azΓΊcar de coco y mezclar hasta que quede todo bien integrado.
Hacer bolitas de 3cm aproximadamente y colocar en una bandeja con papel de horno. Con la base de la palma de la mano o con un tenedor, apretar suavemente para aplanar las galletas, deberΓan tener un grosor de 1 cm mas o menos. A mΓ me han salido 12 galletas.
Hornear 10-12 minutos o hasta que los bordes de las galletas estΓ©n dorados.
Retirar las galletas del horno y dejar enfriar al menos 10 minutos.
* Conservar en un recipiente hermΓ©tico a temperatura ambiente o en nevera durante 1 semana.
