3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies {Gluten Free} are super simple to make and they are the best peanut butter cookies I’ve ever had! These are a Must Make!!
Today I have an incredibly easy recipe for old fashioned chewy peanut butter cookies.
This recipe requires only 3 ingredients, and I bet you already have them on hand. As an added bonus, these cookies are gluten free!!
Of course, with Valentine’s Day around the corner I had to dress these up a bit. If you add the chocolate and M&M’s like I did you will be up to 5 ingredients. Whew, I hope you can handle that. Luckily they will remain gluten free, so go ahead and load them up with chocolate!
My birthday is next week and so is Valentine’s Day, and since I heart you all so much I have some fun giveaways coming!! Check back Tuesday during the Back For Seconds Social for Giveaway #1.
Now go make these peanut butter cookies for someone you love 🙂
Sadie says
These cookies were awesome my family loved them. Thanks!!
Xiomara says
Are they suppose to be soft or crunchy
Stephanie Brubaker says
Somewhere in between 🙂 They are nice and chewy! If baked too long they will be crunchy, and if underbred they will be soft. So you can tweak baking time to yield the results you are looking for. Enjoy!
Judy Rademacher says
FANTASTIC recipe
Linda B says
LOVE THIS RECIPE!
Great additions, I’ve found,are: topping with turbanado sugar mixed with cinnamon, cinnamon chips mixed in, and caramel chips mixed in with a bit of sea salt on top. All so good!

Chloe Eggert says
To much peanut butter in my opinion. But I am not much of a peanut butter person.
Sher says

Rena malinowski says
Can you freeze the cookies. I am start baking and freezing cookies for the Holidays
Stephanie Brubaker says
Absolutely! Smart idea to start baking now 🙂
jan says
IN the oven now!!!!
Patricis says
Made these tonight for my grandsons. All I can say is WOW! Huge hit! The only thing I would change is adding a touch of vanilla flavoring. Will try that next go round. Granted if it works the cookies will then be 4 ingriedents, but still super easy to make. YUM!
Becky says
I put vanilla in mine as well. Made about 3 small scoop cookies. Yummy
Sharon says
How many calories is each cookie? If ya had to guess 🙂
Thanks
Miriam Gonzalez says
Is the batter supposed to be very greasy?
Stephanie Brubaker says
It can be, depending on the kind of peanut butter you use.
Bethany says
I found if you let the batter sit for just a minute after you combine the ingredients, it’s not nearly as sticky. Makes making the fork marks easier 🙂
Happy Baking!
Amy says
Could you substitute normal sugar with coconut sugar or does that change the consistency??
Thanks!
Diane says
We make them with stevia and it works
Heidi says
Can almond butter be used instead of peanut butter?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Yes! Hope you enjoy 🙂
RED says
Does the brown sugar make them chewier?
