My college roommate used to come home and declare, “it smells like peanut butter in here” basically every single day. Always me. Always my go-to dinner. What, it’s a protein! Yes, I have a love affair with peanut butter. Luckily, my fiance is as obsessed with it as I am. So it’s not hard to guess our favorite cookies… Peanut Butter Cookies, of course!

3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies - vegan, gluten-free, sugar free, low carb, keto, no refined sugar - recipe by Christy Brissette, media registered dietitian nutritionist 80 Twenty Nutrition in Toronto and Los Angeles

There’s a classic peanut butter cookie recipe that uses PB, sugar and an egg, but I wanted to see if I could make it sugar-free and vegan. The results were super delicious, thin cookies that have the perfect crunch and creamy peanut butter taste. So in love!

These 3 ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies are low carb and keto friendly thanks to subbing in stevia /erythritol for the sugar.

To make these vegan/egg-free, I’m using one of my favorite ingredient substitutions – chia eggs!

How does one take chia seeds and make them into an egg substitute? So happy you asked.

Check out my Chia Egg how-to video to get a handle on this in 30 seconds. You’ll be cracking those chia eggs all over town!

Chocolate-Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies

While these flourless peanut butter cookies are amazing on their own, you can also dip them in chocolate.

Try my No Refined Sugar Vegan Chocolate Sauce for the perfect chocolate coating. It’s like a peanut butter cup in cookie form!

What I love about these cookies is they’re technically a dessert… but so healthy you could have them as a snack 😉
