Make these cookies vegan / dairy free

To make these cookies vegan and dairy-free, swap out the regular butter for vegan butter and use almond or oat milk in place of cow's milk.

Substitute all-purpose flour for an equal amount of 1:1 or cup-for-cup gluten free flour.

Make peanut butter cookies / other nut butter cookies

You can use this recipe to make classic peanut butter cookies or any other nut butter cookies you like! The amount will stay the same, just make sure the nut butter you use is at room temperature (not too loose and not straight from the fridge) and is smooth.

Ingredients

  • 1 & ¼ cups (150g) all-purpose flour, spoon and leveled
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 60g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • ⅔ cup (180g) all-natural creamy almond butter *see notes
  • ⅔ cup (135g) packed brown sugar, light or dark
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • granulated sugar (optional - for rolling)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine, and set aside.
    1 & ¼ cups (150g) all-purpose flour,, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon salt
  • In a large bowl, add butter, almond butter, and brown sugar. Beat together until well combined and creamy.
    ¼ cup (½ stick / 60g) unsalted butter,, ⅔ cup (180g) all-natural creamy almond butter, ⅔ cup (135g) packed brown sugar,
  • Add your milk and vanilla to the butter mixture, and whisk together until combined. Add the dry ingredients, and mix until you have a thick dough.
    3 tablespoons milk, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Scoop 1 inch sized balls of cookie dough and roll them in your hands to smoothen. (Optional) Roll the dough around in the granulated sugar before arranging on your parchment lined baking sheets. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
    granulated sugar
  • Use a fork to press crisscrossed indents into the cookies (see photo above for visual). Freeze the cookies for 10 minutes to help prevent overspreading.
  • Bake the cookies in the center of your preheated 350°F oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they've spread out and are no longer shiny.
  • Cool the cookies for 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer onto a wire rack and set aside to cool completely before serving!

Notes

* Look for natural almond butter without any added sugar! The cookies will end up WAAAYY too sweet if you use sweetened almond butter (been there, done that). You don't need to get the most expensive jar you can find, but the less ingredients, the better!
