Ingredients for Awesome Gluten Free Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies

  • Teff Flour
  • Sea Salt
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • Canola Oil
  • Vanilla
  • ½ cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

How to Make Awesome Gluten Free Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a food processor, combine the wet ingredients: ½ cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy), ¼ cup vegetable oil, ¼ cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Process until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
  6. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Gently flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
  7. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
