Ingredients

1 cup peanut butter
½ cup powdered Swerve + 1 tablespoon
¼ cup butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º F.
Line baking or cookie sheet with parchment paper. Combine all ingredients in large bowl and mix well.
Roll dough into 1 inch balls. Place on parchment paper-lined cookie sheet and press down twice with fork in a criss-cross pattern.
Bake in oven 14-16 minutes, until edges are golden. Bottoms will be browning and criss-cross pattern will not look shiny or gooey. Let cool completely before removing from parchment paper.

Notes

Dough tip: If dough is too sticky or not rolling well, chill bowl of dough in fridge for 30 minutes prior to rolling.
Peanut butter: No-stir creamy organic peanut butter is recommended, but can use any creamy peanut butter. Crunchy will also work. See our post on Peanut Butter and the Keto Diet for recommendations.
