Easiest Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies
It’s peanut butter (no jelly) time!
These Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies are soft, tender, and completely melt-in-your-mouth. This is an excellent beginner recipe (or lazy recipe), as it takes minimal time and effort. As well, rest easy, as they are free from any animal products!
Another bonus point of these cookies is that they are flourless, which makes them naturally gluten-free. However, don’t let that discourage you - you cannot tell these have no gluten in them! They are a good alternative for those who don’t want to bake with flour, or who can’t eat traditional flour.
