Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake delicious crumbly peanut butter cookies? Very simple! To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can use store-bought peanut butter or make your own. I made it from pasta that I prepared myself (see link under the recipe). The butter should be at room temperature, so remove it from the refrigerator in advance. You can replace cane sugar with regular sugar.

Step 2

Step 2
Combine soft butter at room temperature with sugar and peanut butter and stir until smooth.

Add the egg and mix everything again until smooth.

Sift the flour with baking powder and add it to the dough in parts. Depending on the moisture and density of the peanut butter and the size of the egg, you may need more or less flour. Therefore, focus primarily on consistency.

Step 5

Step 5
You should get an elastic, non-sticky dough. You can put the finished dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to make it more convenient to work with.

Roll the dough into small balls about the size of a walnut.

Step 7

Step 7
Place the blanks on a parchment-lined baking sheet at a distance from each other and flatten each ball with a fork to create a beautiful pattern. Bake cookies in an oven preheated to 180°C for 10-12 minutes. Leave the cookies in the turned off oven until they cool completely. Determine the exact baking time and temperature based on your oven.
