Peanut Butter Cookies {gluten free}

by gfgirlmelb

These are the best cookies! Naturally gluten free with no flour in sight. I’ve been enjoying these before I was gluten free. With only FIVE ingredients, they’re perfect to whip up at the last minute as you’ll most likely already have the ingredients in the cupboard.

Peanut Butter: the type of peanut butter you use makes a big difference. I’ve made these with crunchy, smooth and different brands. The best by far was Bega Smooth (not sponsored!). I tried with Mayvers and they were so crumbly, and hard to push down without breaking everywhere. Don’t get me wrong, I love Mayvers it’s what I prefer on toast or on my porridge, but in these cookies you want Bega.

I hope you enjoy!
