Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, peanut butter, honey, and brown sugar. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to cream these ingredients together until they are light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose white wheat flour and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped peanuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each mound slightly with the back of a fork or your fingers to form a biscuit shape. Leave about 2 inches (5 cm) of space between each biscuit to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still be soft but will set up as they cool.
Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the biscuits are fully cooled, they are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Once you've baked these delicious peanut butter biscuits, let them cool for a few minutes before indulging in their nutty, buttery goodness. Whether enjoyed with a glass of milk, a cup of coffee, or all by themselves, these biscuits are sure to become a favorite. Enjoy your homemade treat!
