Here's a no-fuss classic peanut butter cookie recipe that delivers soft, chewy cookies every time. Made with pantry staples, these cookies are perfect for busy weeknights or a quick treat.

Serving: 24 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the Cookie Dough

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 large pasture-raised egg, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Cooking tip: Use room temperature butter for optimal creaming.
4. Add peanut butter, egg, and vanilla. Beat on medium until fully combined. Scrape down bowl as needed.
5. Gradually add dry ingredients, mixing on low until just incorporated. Cooking tip: Do not overmix to avoid tough cookies.
6. Roll about 1 tablespoon of dough into a 1-inch ball. Place on prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
7. Using a fork, press a crisscross pattern into each ball, flattening slightly.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers are still soft. Cooking tip: For chewier cookies, pull them out when the center appears underdone; they'll continue setting on the sheet.
9. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Perfectly balanced with a soft, chewy center and slightly crisp edges, these cookies are a timeless comfort. Serve with a cold glass of milk or crumbled over vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.

Peanut Cookies with Dark Chocolate Chunks

Kick off your baking session with these peanut cookies that get a bold upgrade from dark chocolate chunks. They're simple to make and deliver a satisfying crunch.

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low just until no dry streaks remain. Tip: Overmixing develops gluten, leading to tough cookies.

8. Scoop rounded tablespoons (about 1.5 inches) of dough onto prepared sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
9. Bake 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden brown and centers are still slightly soft. Tip: For chewy cookies, remove when centers look underdone; they will set as they cool.

Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies

Everyone loves a classic peanut butter cookie, but this vegan version delivers all the flavor without any guilt. These cookies are crisp on the outside, tender inside, and incredibly easy to make.

Serving: 24 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter (no added sugar or oil)
• 3/4 cup coconut sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
• 2.5 tablespoons filtered water (for flax egg)
• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together ground flaxseed and water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until thickened—this is your flax egg.
3. In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, coconut sugar, almond milk, vanilla extract, and the flax egg. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated. (Tip: Use a measuring cup lightly sprayed with nonstick spray for easy peanut butter removal.)
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate for 10 minutes. (Tip: Chilling the dough for 30 minutes yields chewier cookies.)
6. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
7. Using a fork, gently press a crisscross pattern on each ball, flattening to about 1/2-inch thickness. Dip the fork in water between presses to prevent sticking. (Tip: For even baking, rotate the baking sheet halfway through.)
8. Bake for 9–10 minutes, until edges are golden brown and centers appear slightly soft. Do not overbake; they will firm up as they cool.
9. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter (no-stir)
• 1 large pasture-raised egg, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

3. Add the creamy peanut butter, lightly beaten egg, and pure vanilla extract. Beat until the ingredients are fully incorporated, scraping down the sides as needed.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and fine sea salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix to keep cookies tender.
5. Fold in the old-fashioned rolled oats with a spatula until evenly distributed. The dough will be thick and slightly sticky.
6. Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough (about 1.5 inches each) and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each ball with a fork in a crisscross pattern if desired.
7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the sheet halfway through, until the edges are lightly golden and the centers appear set. Tip: For softer cookies, bake on the shorter end.
8. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. The residual heat will finish setting the center. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Tip: Cooling on the sheet prevents breakage.

These cookies stay delightfully chewy for days thanks to the oats and peanut butter. Try them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an irresistible dessert.
