How to Make Whole Wheat And Peanut Butter Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, peanut butter, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the wheat germ.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Use a fork to flatten each cookie ball, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
