Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies {gluten free and dairy free}
These vegan peanut butter cookies are so rich and buttery, you'll never believe they're vegan and gluten-free. The secret ingredient in the applesauce, which keeps them moist and flavorful. Plus, they're cute as a button and easy to make with just a few simple ingredients.
Start by adding your peanut butter to a medium bowl. Then, mix in the baking soda, sugar, flour, applesauce, vanilla, and salt.
Give it a good stir, until everything is well combined into a dough.
Place the dough in the fridge for about one hour to cool.
Once the dough is chilled, spray your baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Roll the dough into small balls, and place them in rows on the cookie sheet. Now get a fork and add in some crisscrosses to flatten the cookies a little.
Put into oven at 350 degrees (F) for 10 minutes.
Once they are done, take out and let cool completely. They are fragile when first baked. So let them cool and harden up before removing from the cookie sheet.
Once cooled, enjoy! Or you can even crumble them on top of a favorite dessert. Enjoy.
