Keto Peanut Butter Cookie/ Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie/ Chocolate Swirl Peanut Butter Cookie

After baking keto friendly cookies with hazelnut and almond, I was thinking of other options. What about peanuts? Although it is not actually considered a nut…

Peanut butter cookies is even more straightforward if you have sugar free peanut butter in your pantry. The addition of an egg will help to bind the peanut butter together.

Actually even without the egg, my peanut butter can be rolled into a ball shape at room temperature or after chilling in the fridge. I did not add any extra peanut oil into my peanut butter when I was blending it so it’s just a thick paste.
