How To Make Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies

These vegan peanut butter cookies contain no complicated ingredients and are super easy to make with just a few simple steps.

What you’ll need (measurement are in the recipe card below):

Peanut butter – crunchy or creamy (almond butter is great too)
Sugar – coconut or organic pure cane
Flour – light spelt, all-purpose, almond flour, gluten free flour blend or chickpea flour
Almond milk – water is ok too
Baking soda – baking powder works as well
Vanilla – can be optional
Mineral salt – only use if peanut butter is unsalted

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 cookie sheets with silicone mat, parchment paper or leave ungreased.
In a large bowl, add the peanut butter and sugar and mix until creamy. Stir in the almond milk and vanilla.

Next, add the flour and baking soda, and mix to combine. The dough will start to stiffen and be tough to stir, use your hands to finish mixing it together.

Using a trigger scooper, scoop out the dough and roll into balls, about 1 1/4 inch.
Place the balls of dough about 2 1/2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Using the back of a fork, flatten in a crisscross pattern. Optionally, sprinkle with sugar or coarse salt.
Bake, on the center rack, for 10 – 13 minutes (13 minutes will yield a crispier cookie that’s tender inside).
Let cool a few minutes, transfer cookies to wire rack and repeat with remaining dough. Makes about 20 – 24 cookies.

Do I Need To Chill The Cookie Dough?

No! Unlike most peanut butter recipes that call for chilling the dough before baking which keeps the dough from spreading too much, this recipe doesn’t require you to chill the dough, making for one less step and cookies in minutes. BUT, if the temperatures are warm in your kitchen, above 80 degrees, you may consider rolling the balls and letting them chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking. My kitchen was a cool 74 with the air on.

How To Store Peanut Butter Cookies

Keep your peanut butter cookies fresh in an airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days. They do well loosely covered for a couple of days too. To keep longer, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

How To Freeze Peanut Butter Cookies

To freeze peanut butter cookies, let the cookies cool completely and store them in a freezer safe container with parchment paper between the layer of cookies. Cookies will keep for up to 2 months. Let thaw in the fridge or on the counter.
To freeze peanut butter cookie dough, roll the dough into balls as directed, place the balls on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer until solid. Place frozen dough balls in a freezer bag or freezer safe container for up to 2 months. When ready to bake, no thawing needed, simply place the frozen dough on a lined baking sheet and bake for 2 – 4 minutes longer than recipe time.
