Ingredients

Core Cookie Ingredients

  • 225 g approx. 14 tbsp crunchy peanut butter (100% peanuts, unsweetened)
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 100 g approx. 1/2 cup granulated allulose or monk fruit/erythritol blend
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Flavor & Mix-ins

  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup approx. 50g sugar-free chocolate chips (e.g., stevia-sweetened)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a single large bowl, add the egg, granulated sweetener, and vanilla extract. Whisk vigorously for 30 seconds until slightly pale and combined.
  • Add the crunchy peanut butter, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and sea salt to the bowl. Use a spatula to fold and mix everything together until a cohesive, stiff dough forms.
  • Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips.
  • Scoop small portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into 24 uniform balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
  • Using the back of a fork dipped in water (to prevent sticking), gently press down on each ball to flatten it, then press again in the opposite direction to create a classic criss-cross pattern.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes. The cookies will be very soft and appear slightly underdone in the center, but the edges will be set and golden.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes to firm up completely before transferring them to a wire rack.
