Ingredients

1/2 c peanut butter
1 egg
1/4 c honey

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 and line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk egg in small bowl. Add peanut butter and honey, and mix until fully combined.
Using a tablespoon, drop cookies 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. The batter is gooey. Don't worry. Just stay with me here.
Bake for 15 minutes on middle oven rack.
Remove from oven and allow to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Cookies will continue baking and firm as they cool.
Eat one cookie and convince yourself not to eat the other 11 the same sitting.
Enjoy!

21 Day Fix (per cookie)

2 teaspoons

Great Tip

Need more spice? Flavor them up with vanilla extract and cinnamon!

This recipe looks delish! Just curious why one cookie is 2 teaspoons instead of 3 teaspoons? (48 tsp in one cup: (24 tsp pb + 12 tsp honey) / 12 = 3)

  Honey is not one of your oil teaspoons, Suzy. It’s a special teaspoon from page 15. You can have up to 4 teaspoons of sweetener daily.

      You can try it, Adriana! I’d probably do maple syrup over agave. It’s thicker.

  Hey, Arleen! It depends on your personal calorie bracket. Each cookie = 2 teaspoons

did you store the leftovers in the fridge? These are the bomb btw! Much more satisfying then eating 2 tsp of pb off my teaspoon lol.

Also if your calorie intake is 1200 to 1499 how many are you allowed
Reply

  March 30, 2015 at 5:47 pm
  Kristie, each cookie = 2 teaspoons, so for the lowest bracket, you may have one cookie per day.

I wonder how these would work with 1/4 cup pb and 1/4 cup pumpkin puree. I love pb and pumpkin together. I may have to try it later.

After just 12 minutes of baking the bottoms were burnt. Will try again only at a lower temp and for less than 15 minutes.

I tried this recipe last night with agave honey and a tbsp of coconut oil. It’s delicious!
I didn’t see the “limit to one cookie a day” part until it was too late. I had 3 cookies in one sitting – – although I shaped them into bite size tsp cookies to be exact. Now I have to get that extra work out in!

These were so easy and so good! I wonder how they would bake with chunky pb. I think that crunch would make them that much better! Thanks for this recipe!

Just curious why is it only equal to 2 Tsp. I know you added an egg. Wouldn’t that be 1/2 red also?
Reply
- Jean says
  December 30, 2015 at 1:51 am
  One egg is 1/2 red. This is 1/2 red divided into 12 cookies, so not enough to count per serving. It would be 0.04 red per serving — don’t you dare track nitty gritty decimals like that! 🙂

Just made these. Used maple syrup instead of honey on a 1:1 ratio so I didn’t add anything extra (some websites state to add sugar when you replace honey with maple syrup- but it’s not needed). Added a dash of Saigon cinnamon and 1 tsp of vanilla. Baked for 7 minutes and then checked and it only needed one more minute. Since all ovens are diff, be on the safe side and check before hitting 15 min. Batter was yummy, cookies were amazing. Awesome!!! Thanks for the recipe.

So, I made these last night, and added 1/4 of steel cut oats. Oh Em Gee! And since it works out to like 1/6 of a yellow, according to Autumn anyways, it doesn’t change the container count at all. Only baked them for about 10 mins. They were AMAZING!!!

OMFG. Amazing! Added a little cocoa, because chocolate and PB need to go together. Probably not 21 day fix approved, I’m sure, but oh well. I’m making these all the time now.
