Alex’s Gluten Free Peanut Butter
& Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
That name is quite a mouthful isn’t it!! I agree. My daughter came up with this recipe, with a bit of guidance. It’s her favorite to make since it’s “HER” recipe and she gets to make cookies. What kid doesn’t love making cookies? With a few simple ingredients you’ll be able to make these yourself or encourage your child to make them as well. We use coconut flour to make these Gluten Free.
Gluten Free Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
Notes: Use homemade Vanilla you won’t be sorry you did!! Also the last step prior to making it’s a good idea to set your hands slightly to form the balls sealing the edges, this seems to help sometimes with gluten free baking. We hope you enjoy this recipe and please let me know if you tried it – Alex would love to hear from you!
