Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies

Gluten Free baking is not easy, and it quite often ends with a not very good product. Gluten free baked good can tend to be kind of gritty and grainy, with a weird after taste. This cookie recipe is actually the recipe I have used since I was a child, (way before I ever knew I was gluten intolerant) and it just so happens to be Gluten Free.

After 10 minutes, and only 3 ingredients you end up with warm, chewy peanut butter cookies.



Ingredients:

2 cups of Peanut Butter (crunchy or smooth, you pick!)
2 cups of White Sugar
2 Eggs

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375. In a medium mixing bowl, beat your eggs and sugar together until well combined. Next, add the peanut butter and stir really well. (This is the hardest step, as the dough gets thick and a little hard to stir.) After all ingredients are combined, grease your hands and roll a ball of dough that is about 1 inch wide. Place it on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. The last step is to use a fork to make the crisscross pattern on the top of the cookies. Bake at 375 for approximately 7 minutes. (Because of the high sugar content, these will burn quickly if you do not watch them. You want them to just start turning light brown.)

Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for at least 10 minutes before you move them. They will fall apart if you move them sooner.

Enjoy! :)
