Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

You guys.  

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip CookiesGluten free doesn’t always mean healthy.  Gluten free also doesn’t always mean gross.  It means exactly what it says.  Gluten free! While there’s no gluten, there are many other delicious ingredients that can make even a gluten free cookie A-MAZING!

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie-3Theeeeeeeeeese Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are BOMB.COM!  Yes, I just said that.  And yes, they really are.  Just look at that soft, crackly deliciousness.  Mouth. Is. Salivating.  

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip CookieDid I mention this is a one bowl gig?  I’m into it.  You can also make these dairy free by leaving out the chocolate chips.  Although, I know there are some chocolate chips that are considered dairy free, so in that case, the more the merrier!  

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie-2The dough for this recipe is not your typical cookie dough.  It’s got more moisture (much better than using the word moist) than you’re probably used to, but don’t let that scare you away.  KEEP GOING.

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies-2If you’re really nice, bring ’em to a neighbor or a friends house to share.  

And if not?  I won’t tell.  Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies-4

Description

A quick and easy gluten free cookie recipe that tastes absolutely incredible 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter ( a natural drippy peanut butter works best)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup semi-sweet (or dark chocolate chips)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl add the peanut butter, sugar, baking soda, egg, and vanilla. Blend until well combined. Using a spatula, fold in the chocolate chips. Cover and put in the fridge for 20-30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a baking sheet and set aside. Remove cookie dough from the fridge and make golf ball size balls and bake for 10-11 minutes. Let cool on the pan for 1-2 minutes then move to a wire rack to cool completely.

      I made two batches, one with vanilla, chocolate chip, and butterscotch chip mix. The other batch with maple syrup as a vanilla substitute and mint chocolate chips. Both were awesome. The maple syrup batch had a subtle maple taste which was my wife and kids favorite. Thanks for an easy recipe.

    Wow, just made these and they were a big hit with the kids. We are gluten free and having NO flour or butter I was skeptical! You don’t happen to know the sugar content per cookie, I am sure its a lot. Thought of reducing the sugar (we try to reduce refined sugars) but was afraid since its a major part of the recipe it would not work out.

      So glad the kids loved them! I don’t know the sugar content, not sure I wanna know! Could definitely try reducing the sugar a bit…Would maybe just change the texture a bit.

      We love this recipe. To reduce the sugar content we replace 1/2 the sugar with LSA or with almond meal and whole Flax seeds. It works really well. Hope that helps.

    Ive made these several times and they arw a huge hir. I also add nuts and reduce the sugar by almost half and Ive had no troubles. They do flatten out more. Thank you dor a great and super easy recipe.

    Do you think a flax egg would work for these? My daughter is vegan.

    I made these again using crunchy unsweetened peanut butter and they are incredible! We don’t need gluten free but why not? My husband said they had a texture of a macaroon. Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I used mini chocolate chips too. I had to take them to work otherwise we would have eaten them all! Thank you for this great recipe!

    I am writing as they are setting. They look really good. I didn’t have any chocolate chips, so I cut up dove dark chocolate. Hope it turns out well. I am not gluten-free, but my cousins are… so I thought it would be fun to make them.

“On the other side of fear is freedom.” ⁣
⁣
One of my favorite quotes from @jensincero 🙌🏼⁣
⁣
Isn’t this just the truest of truths?⁣
⁣
SO much of what holds us back in life is based in fear. ⁣
⁣
Fear of failure.⁣
Fear of not being enough.⁣
Fear of struggle.⁣
Fear of pain.⁣
⁣
Sure, getting what you want and going after your dreams isn’t always easy. But, what if I told you that directly on the other side of that mountain of fear is complete and utter freedom? 🤩⁣
⁣
Freedom to believe in yourself.⁣
Freedom to be who you want.⁣
Freedom to rise above the rest.⁣
⁣
Guess what else lies within freedom?⁣
⁣
CONFIDENCE.⁣
⁣
Don’t you dare underestimate the power of confidence. ⁣
⁣
Confidence allows you to do things you never thought possible. ⁣
⁣
Confidence opens up so many doors for you to explore. ⁣
⁣
Confidence = Freedom.⁣
⁣
And both of those things are waiting for you on the other side of that mountain. ⁣
⁣
Today is the LAST DAY to get on the Cook with Confidence waitlist. If you’re on it, you get early access to the application which goes out tomorrow morning! ⁣
⁣
Don’t sleep on it. Let’s do this together. ⁣

⁣
There’s never gonna be the perfect time to go after your goals, make the change, take the leap or do that one scary thing you’ve been thinking about. Life will keep happening. There will always be a reason to not.⁣
⁣
But what if? What if you decided right now to make it work? What if you decided to prioritize that thing you KNOW will change your life (and the lives of others) forever? ⁣
⁣
What if I told you that in 8 weeks (think about how short that is in the grand scheme), you could feel confident enough in the kitchen to feed yourself and your family healthy, delicious meals that they begged for over and over again. ⁣
⁣
How would that make you feel? Truly... I want you to take a second to think about how you would feel knowing that you and your family were actually excited about the next meal. So excited that they go back for seconds and request it again the next night. Feels pretty good, huh? ⁣
⁣
Feels pretty awesome to put yourself first for a change because guess what? When you put yourself first, everybody wins. ⁣
⁣
When you shine, everybody lights up. Confidence is something we all have within us, sometimes we just need a little help finding it. ⁣
⁣
If you are someone who feels overwhelmed, lost or anxious in the kitchen, I am here to help. In fact, my gift in life is helping people overcome those feelings in the kitchen which ultimately bleeds into other areas of their life, lighting up the people around them. ⁣
⁣
Cook with Confidence is my 8-week high touch, virtual program that helps busy home cooks build confidence in the kitchen and learn how to cook delicious meals without being tied to a recipe. This is NOT your average cooking program. ⁣
⁣
This is NOT a program that hands you a list of ingredients or meal plans and sends you on your merry way. ⁣
⁣
This IS a program that dives deep into the fundamental skills that it takes to achieve ultimate kitchen freedom. Everything from kitchen essentials, to knife skills, to chicken, fish, soup, pasta and more. This IS a program that will change your life. ⁣

Applications open on Monday for waitlist only so get on it! Stop waiting, the time is now. ♥️

I’ve been super inspired by this new book JEW-ish by @jakecohen. ⁣
⁣
I love his story, the why behind the book and of course, the recipes!⁣
⁣
Jew-ish is the perfect way to describe how I grew up. Sure, I was raised Jewish, we celebrated all the big holidays and I had a Bat Mitzvah, but I never really built a strong connection with Judaism itself. ⁣
⁣
I’ve learned most everything I know about Judaism through having kids and learning alongside them. It’s been a beautiful journey for me and this book has inspired me to continue learning, celebrating and being proud. ✡️⁣
⁣
@jakecohen writes about making Shabbat and Jewish traditions whatever you want them to be without the pressure of making it perfect. He also teaches you how to make this challah! For me, food is what brings us all together and BOOM CLAP it doesn’t get more Jewish than this big ass challah! ⁣
