Ingredients for Peanut Butter Cookie Dough
Peanut butter. Use a runny brand, with only peanuts for ingredients. You can of course use any nut butter.
Almond flour. Use fine ground almond flour to help bind the cookie dough. Almond flour can be eaten raw.
Maple syrup. Or use your favorite liquid sweetener.
Chocolate chips. I use enjoylife or hu to keep the cookie dough vegan and dairy free.

Recipe Tips
Use any nut butter, but peanut butter will give you the nuttiest flavor.
Use fine almond flour or meal - meal is made from almonds with skins on so have more fiber.
Your dough moisture will be influenced by how wet your peanut butter is. If it mixes too wet, add a few tablespoons of flour. If it mixes too dry, add a few tablespoons of milk.
FAQS
