How to Make Whole Wheat Peanut Butter Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 1/2 cup (1 stick) light butter until smooth and creamy.
- Add 1 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Beat until well combined.
- Add 1 large egg and beat until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (from step 2) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll the dough into 3/4-inch balls.
- Place the dough balls onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Use a fork to gently flatten each ball, creating a criss-cross pattern on top.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
