Delicious and easy peanut butter cookies made without any butter. These cookies are soft, chewy, and perfect for peanut butter lovers looking for a simple, dairy-free treat.
1 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter and granulated sugar. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt to the peanut butter mixture. Stir until all ingredients are fully incorporated and a dough forms.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, scoop out dough and roll into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough ball gently with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
