• 1/2 cup powdered peanut butter
• 1 cup oat flour

Instructions:

Prepare a medium or large bowl.
Add coconut sugar, powdered peanut butter, and oat flour.
Whisk to combine well.
Gradually add water into the mixture and continually whisk it until it looks like a dough.

Tips and ideas:

If you are using regular peanut butter, skip the water. Mix the ingredients using a food processer rather than mixing it by hand.

If the mixture is too sticky and you are having problems forming the cookies, you can dip your fork in olive oil before using it.

You can eat the peanut butter cookies right away or put them in the fridge for 15 minutes to set before eating.
