Super Easy (4 ingredient) Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Cookies

Here's the deal... The very first time you hear you must eat a Gluten-Free diet you will most likely panic, I know I did. And after eating every form of raw food you can handle, you WILL crave sweets! It's ok :) I'm not going to tell you it will always be easy to be Gluten-Free because I would be lying. It's hard, but not near as hard as it used to be. I'm still learning too, but for those of you that need somewhere to start here's a great treat to ease the transition. 100% Gluten-Free and super easy! Bonus: If you don't let on they're Gluten-Free..NO ONE WILL KNOW!! In fact no one in my family has noticed yet :)

Super Easy (4 ingredient) Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Cookies


1 egg
1 cup white granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup peanut butter (check ingredient label, use a "natural" type peanut butter, ours lists peanuts & palm oil as the only ingredients)

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheet. In medium size mixing bowl mix together all ingredients really well. Roll into 1" balls and place on cookie sheet. Use a fork to press a cross hatch design on tops. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Immediately (and very carefully) remove cookies from pan and cool on racks. These are very soft and very yummy!

**Optional:  This recipe works well with some add-ins. Gluten-Free chocolate chips are easy to find and some oatmeals are ok (just get to know the labels!)

  1. These look really yummy. I will give them a try. Can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve! You are a great example to me of facing your trials head on. We were meant to be happy even through our trials. You are a great example of doing just that!
