This recipe comes from Moosewood Celebrates cookbook. I tweaked it a little to make it gluten free. They come out golden brown, chewy, crunchy, and sweet.

1 c brown sugar, packed

1/2 c natural peanut butter

1/4 c vegetable oil

1 egg

1 T pure vanilla extract

2 T light corn syrup

1 3/4 c Bob's red mill gluten free all purpose flour

1 t. baking powder

1t. baking soda

1/2 t salt

1 to 2 T water if needed



Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Put parchment paper on baking sheets.

Cream together brown sugar, peanut butter, oil, egg, vanilla, and corn syrup. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and blend. The dough will be stiff and crumbly; if it won't hold together add water.

With your hands, shape and roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them on the baking sheet and flatten with the bottom of a glass (or the palm of your hand).

.Bake for about 10 minutes until golden brown. Cool on a rack .

HI!

Mlasley those sound really good. I would rather not use corn syrup-anyone have an idea what I could sub for it? What about maple syrup?

Thanks,
Michelle

Maybe try molasses. It has a closer consistency to the corn syrup.
