Peanut butter cookies
This recipe is from the cookbook "Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar". I reduced the amount of sugar in the recipe considerably and made some other small changes.
Ingredients
350 g (1 jar) smooth peanut butter
160 ml vegetable oil
about 200 ml (1 cup) brown sugar
120 ml soy or oat milk
a bit of vanilla sugar
about 400 ml (2 cups) flour
0,5 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
peanuts
Directions
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celcius and grease a large baking sheet with some oil. Thoroughly mix peanut butter, oil and sugar in a big bowl. Add milk and vanilla sugar, then add flour, salt and baking powder. Knead the dough with your hands, it should be quite thick and not stick to your fingers. Start making the cookies. Take a some dough and press it evenly on a clean flat surface. Use the lid of the peanut butter jar or a cup to form the cookies. The cookies should be about 0,6-0,8 cm thick. Place the cookies on a baking sheet (they can be quite close to each other, as they do not increase during baking). Press about 6-8 peanuts gently in each cookie. Bake about 22-25 minutes in 175 degrees, until the edges of the cookies have become slightly golden. Let cool before serving.
This amount makes about 22 cookies.
