Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter see note if not using a runny nut butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 2/3 cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 12 Hershey Kisses unwrapped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • In a mixing bowl, combine natural peanut butter, egg, coconut sugar and vanilla
  • Once mixed well, add in the almond flour and baking soda and combine until a thick dough is formed
  • Using a cookie scoop, make 1-inch dough balls and place on the baking sheet that is lined with either a silicone baking mat or parchment paper (if not using either of these or anything non-stick, make sure you spray the sheet pan with a neutral oil to prevent sticking)
  • Bake the cookies for 10-11 minutes at 350°F
  • Once done, stick an unwrapped Hershey Kiss in the middle of each cookie and press down lightly, just enough so that the Hershey Kiss will stay on the peanut butter cookie
  • Let cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet, then enjoy!

Notes

  1. I have not tested this recipe with another flour other than almond flour
  2. You can leave out the Hershey Kiss and replace with another dairy free chocolate if making this dairy free
  3. If making this low sugar, you can substitute any granular sugar substitute 
  4. If your peanut butter is not runny like a natural peanut butter is, add 1-2 tablespoons of oil
