Ingredients
1
cup
peanut butter
½
cup
unsalted butter
softened
1
large
egg
½
cup
powdered stevia
1
teaspoon
vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the peanut butter, softened butter, powdered stevia, vanilla extract, and egg in a large mixing bowl.
Stir the ingredients together until smooth and fully combined.
With a small scoop or spoon, form 1 inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using a fork, flatten the cookie dough balls slightly and create a criss-cross pattern on top of each cookie.
Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes in a preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly browned. Watch them as they can burn quickly.
Keep the cookies on the pan for 5-10 minutes before moving them to cool on a wire rack.
Notes
This recipe makes 15 cookies, and each cookie contains 3 net carbs.
If your keto peanut butter cookie dough is too soft to roll into balls, try refrigerating it for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
Use natural peanut butter that doesn't contain added sugar or oil for the best flavor and texture.
Soften the butter before mixing to make it easier to combine with the other ingredients.
Room temperature eggs mix more easily and create a smoother dough.
Use a small scoop or spoon to ensure uniform size and shape for the cookies.
Flatten the cookie dough with a fork and make a crisscross pattern with the back of a fork on the top of each one.
Watch the cookies closely as they bake, as they can burn quickly.
Leave your cookies to cool on the sheet for several minutes, then move them to a cooling rack to firm up and cool down completely.
