We have also made these with Almond butter and they turned out equally delicious but lets be real… Almond Butter can be a little pricey. I make double or tripe batches of these bad boys and they are great in the morning with coffee! Have fun with other nut butters (I am so sorry for those with peanut allergies!! *tears)

I bet Sun Butter would work for people with nut allergies. Not too expensive if you buy at TJ’s.
That is a GREAT alternative and I bet it would be SO delish!!! Thanks for the suggestion! I will have to give it a try!!!
Thesebaer soo yummy!
YES THEY ARRRRREEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
Mine kinda fall to piece…not really holding together..any ideas
It depends on what kind of peanut butter you use and also the sweetener. I have to pack them pretty tightly and sometimes they do feel crumbly. Once they cool after the oven, they often stay together, just careful how you store them. You can always play around with adding another egg and see if you get a better texture
Peanut butter cookies are my favoriate, but I am afraid if I make them i will eat them all and defeat the purpose of what i am doing. I think I will try your fat bombs , better to be on the safer side. LOL Thank you for taking the time to post your recipes. They are very helpful. Leslie in Roanoke, VA
Good idea! All things in moderation 😉
Rachele can we use flax powder to substitute eggs ?
Absolutely!!!
What other sweeteners will work? Will Stevia work?
Absolutely! Any low carb sweetener will work <3
This is the perfect sugar-free alternative to yummy peanut butter cookies! Thanks for sharing it!
Thanks Tammy <3
I used the wrong measurements… I did 1 x cup nut butter, 1 x egg, and 1 x cup sweetener. Oh Lordy me, these are sooooooo sweet. I can barely eat them. I have just had 1/2 a cookie and I am done. 🙁 That’ll teach me to read the recipe better.
OH LIBBY!!! I have done that before! Luckily they are simple enough to re-make 😉 xoxoxo
Great flavor. I added cocoa powder to 1/2 the dough for chocolate peanut butter cookies. Any suggestions how to make them more crispy. Just cook longer?
You could cook a bit longer but I find keeping them in the fridge makes them a bit more crispy!! <3
Where can I buy Swerve? I checked at Safeway and Whole Foods but they don’t carry it.
We get ours off Amazon! Some higher end grocery stores will carry it as well
How many cookies are we allowed to eat to equal two Cobbs
Each cookie is roughly 2 carbs. Could be less or more depending on your ingredients. Plug them into a macro counter with the exact ingredients you will be using
How can I get your recope for the fat bombs.
I have 1 recipe under my blog tab but need to get more posted soon!
