Flourless Peanut Butter Maple Walnut Cookies
Prior to going on my weight loss journey. I would bake at least once a week. If you've been following my blog for a while. You know that baking really does have a special place in my heart. I love sweets and starchy foods and that was one of my biggest problems. I literally was the type of person that would have cupcakes or ice cream for breakfast. Now that I'm living a healthier lifestyle. I still have the same treats. However, my approach with having them is on a healthy scale. I don't bake with sugar, flour or eggs. These cookies can literally be eaten at any time of day.
These cookies are...
Chewy
Protein packed
Flourless
Note
When I make my cookies, I use all natural peanut butter. One of the places that has all natural peanut butter for a great price is Target. Purchase the peanut butter with the yellow top.
Recipe
Ingredients- 1 Flax Egg (Tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 Tablespoons water)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon oats

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Make the flax egg. Combine the ground flaxseed and water together in a bowl, set aside for about five minutes
- In the same bowl with the flax egg, add the peanut butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, oats, vanilla, and baking soda until well combined.
- Spoon 1 tablespoon of the cookie dough mixture, on a nonstick baking sheet. About 1 inch apart
- Bake for 9- 10 minutes. Remove from oven
- Allow to cool completely, and enjoy!
