Peanut Butter Cookies



1 cup blanched almond flour (I use honeyville grain brand as its the cheapest)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup creamy roasted peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons shortening (I used spectrum vegan shortening)
1 tsp vanilla extract

1. Combine the flour, salt, and baking soda in kitchen aid mixer
2. Add honey, peanut butter, shortening, vanilla
3. Mix together until well blended
4. Scoop 1-2 Tablespoons at a time onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet (I use my silpat)
5. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes until golden

original recipe at www.elanaspantry.com uses agave instead of honey (I don't think I can tolerate agave due to high fructose content so I replaced with honey). I want to try using cane sugar to decrease the cost instead of using honey.
