The Best Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Chip Cookies Ever—Easy & Delicious!

/ Tuesday, July 30, 2013

I'm personally not a gluten-free eater but I'm coming across more and more friends who are cutting out breads, cookies and cakes for the sake of their health. What about you? I've been making these flourless peanut butter cookies for ages but didn't realize until recently that their safe for folks with a gluten intolerance...duh, Erin! Anyway, I figured I'd share the recipe incase you yourself or someone you love is looking for a tasty gluten-free recipe that's easy to make (and super delicious, too). These cookies only call for 5 ingredients and you could cut that down to 4, if you skip the chips. Here's how you make 'em...

1. Preheat the oven to 350˚. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
2. Beat the peanut butter, sugar, egg, vanilla and salt in a bowl with an electric mixer until combined. Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls; roll balls in sugar and arrange on the prepared baking sheets about 1 inch apart.
