Fudgy Peanut Butter Cookies - GF, Vegan


So, I can't give you my Granny's cookies, though they ingnite the sweetest memories for me. You won't find white flour, vegetable shortening, sugar or eggs in these. She may in fact think I had lost my mind to change the recipe but I had to get as close as I could to enjoying them without killing myself in the process! When ever I wasn't feeling well my Granny would ask me, "What's the matter with you? You allergic to something you et?" ( that's not a typo, she was a North Florida Native and if you have spent time in North Florida you don't need an explanation) Little did I know, she was right. I was intolerant to almost everything I ate. Granny, I hope you will forgive the changes and know that I made them with love and happy thoughts of you in my heart! In honor of Granny....

FUDGY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES - GF, VEGAN



1 box garbonzo beans ( 13 0z)
1/2 C + 2 T organic peanut butter
1/4 c pure maple syrup
2 t pure vanilla
1 t GF baking powder
pinch of sea salt

Preheat oven to 350. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper. Blend all ingredients in food processor. Scrape down sides as needed, mix until well blended. Scoop out and roll into balls. Bake for 8-10 minutes. I criss-crossed mine about half way through baking. If you want that traditional feel sprinkle coconut palm sugar over top for last few minutes of baking. (They are also scrumptious with chocolate chips, choose allergy free - Enjoy Life chips)
