Pantry Cooking- Wheat Free Peanut Butter Cookies
Awhile back I mentioned that I was working on a recipe for wheat and sugar free peanut butter cookies. I think I’ve got it tasty enough to share.
The original recipe called for sugar, eggs and peanut butter, but I always try to find ways to leave the sugar out of, or replace the sugar in my recipes. I tried this one with stevia in place of sugar and it was decent, but not great. I finally settled on 1/3 C of honey in place of the cup of sugar originally called for. It’s still got a glycemic load, but at least it isn’t refined sugar.
The following recipe is the basic model. You can dress it up with chocolate chips, coconut, or raisins. Use your imagination!
- 2 eggs
- 1 C peanut butter (I used creamy)
- 1/3 C honey
- 1/2 C oat bran
- 1 tsp vanilla
Mix all the ingredients well and bake bar or drop style for about 15 minutes at 375.
Enjoy!
I’ve shared this recipe at The Homeacre Hop, and The Homestead Barn Hop
Hey Magi. I’m going to have to try these. If you use Orange Blossom honey your body will process it even better than just any honey and its super yummy! I love your posts and they are encouraging us to work toward being less dependent on others and maybe even living somewhat off the grid.
Yum! Thanks for sharing this on The HomeAcre Hop!
