Peanut Butter and Jam Cookies
Peanut Butter and Jam Cookies are the perfect sweet treat. By using such a classic flavor combination, these cookies are both nostalgic and indulgent in addition to delicious!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup salted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 1 egg, large
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup all purpose flour, or gluten free flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup strawberry jam, plus more as scooping batter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
- In a bowl, mix together your butter, both sugars, egg and vanilla extract
- Once combined, add the peanut butter and flour 1/2 cup at a time
- With the last bit of flour add the baking soda and baking powder
- Mix until fully combined
- Now time to add the jam! Very slowly we are going to add some strawberry jam (or whatever flavor your choose). Add dollops in various areas on the batter
- Gently mix the batter with the jam, now it's time to scoop the batter (I use a 2 tbsp scooper)
- TIP : add about 1/2 tsp of jam into the cookie scoop before scooping the cookie batter. This adds a little extra jam to the top of each cookie!
- Add on the baking tray that is lined with parchment paper
- Repeat this process until you've scooped all of the cookies (I bake 6 on a pan)
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are slightly crisp and the center is still soft
- Let cool for 20 minutes and enjoy!
