    Method

    • step 1

      Preheat your oven to 180°C

    • step 2

      Put the peanut butter, sweetener and egg into a bowl

    • step 3

      Mix the ingredients well so that the mixture combines and creates a big (but very soft) dough like ball

    • step 4

      Roll out balls of dough the size of walnuts and place on baking parchment/paper on a baking tray

    • step 5

      Using a fork, gently press the dough ball to squash it and create a pattern on the cookie, then press the fork in the opposite direction to create a criss cross pattern

    • step 6

      Place cookies in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are slightly browning

    • step 7

      Remove the cookies from the tray and lay on a wire cooling rack. Be careful with these cookies as they crumble easily!
