Combining the rich and creamy taste of peanut butter with the subtle sweetness of coconut flour, these cookies are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Follow this simple recipe to create delightful homemade cookies that everyone will love.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and well combined. You can use an electric mixer or just a sturdy spoon.
Crack the egg into the bowl and add the vanilla extract. Mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated, ensuring the mixture is smooth and consistent.
Gradually add the coconut flour to the wet mixture, stirring continuously. The dough will thicken as you mix. Continue to mix until all the coconut flour is fully incorporated and the dough is consistent.
Scoop small amounts of dough (about a tablespoon each) and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure to space them about 1-2 inches apart. Gently flatten each ball with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on the tops.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are completely cooled, you can assemble the sandwich cookies. Take one cookie, spread a generous amount of peanut butter on the flat side, and then sandwich it with another cookie, flat side down. Repeat with the remaining cookies.

Peanut butter sandwich cookies FAQ:
Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
If your cookie dough is too dry, you can add a small amount of milk (1 tablespoon at a time) or an extra egg to moisten the mixture until it reaches the desired consistency.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them for up to two weeks or freeze them for up to three months.
Coconut flour has unique absorbing properties; if you must substitute, consider using almond flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour, but be aware you may need to adjust the liquid ingredients.
You can substitute the butter with a similar amount of coconut oil or a plant-based butter for a dairy-free alternative, ensuring it is softened to the same consistency.
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature to ensure easy mixing.
- Use a good quality peanut butter for the best flavor.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to help the cookies hold their shape.
- Press the cookies lightly with a fork before baking to give them a classic peanut butter cookie texture.
- Bake the cookies on parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent them from sticking.
