Peanut Butter Cookies
What you need:
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 cup non-refined sugar
1/2 cup sucanat or brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon Ener-G Egg Replacer
2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
What you do:
Combine margarine, peanut butter, both vegan sugars and water. Sift together the dry ingredients, then stir into first mixture. Mix completely. Roll into 1 balls, and place about 3 apart on greased cookie sheet, then flatten with a fork. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes, until cookies are set.
You can use one cup of sucanat instead of two different vegan sugars, and the cookies still come out perfect.
Enjoy!

SO HOW'D IT GO?
Very good. I used a teaspoon of cornstarch instead of egg replacer (all i could think of that i had, worked out nice). I added mabye 2 tablespoons of extra water towards the end because it was a tad dry, and it worked out great.
;)b Yummy
This is only the second or third time I've ever made or eaten pb cookies (I don't really think they are a UK thing!)
I only made half the recipe and I'm glad I did - just coz otherwise I'd have too many round the house for me to eat!
I did find the dough quite dry, so I added 2 teaspoons of water towards the end. I also added a couple of handfuls of chocolate chips, because for me cookies just aren't cookies if they don't have chcolate chips in ::) Oh and also I don't have eger-G, so used my usual egg sub of chickpea flour.
I made 22 cookies in all, about 2 inch in diameter. They were cooked for 10mins and they are perfect - the edges are nice and crispy and they middle is nice and chewy.
I really liked the idea of rolling in a ball and flattening with a fork - it means they come out nice and uniform and have a nice pattern on top :)
Yummy!
I made these, subbing 1 cup of the flour for 1/2 cup coconut, and 1/2 cup oat flour, subbing the water for maple syrup, and adding 1/2 tsp vanilla, and they were good. Not the chewy pb cookies I had in mind, but my grandmother sure seemed crazy over them :)
these are great cookies. I thought the batter was perfect and the cookies perfect too (though I cooked for approx. 13 minutes each batch) and got 30 cookies. :)
also, I subbed half the butter with applesauce. I probably could have subbed half or all of the oil too, but this time around, I did not.
thanks for the recipe!
