Instructions
- preheat the oven to 350°f (175°c). line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- in a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, oat flour, runny peanut butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and dairy-free milk. mix until well combined to form the cookie dough.
- roll the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. flatten each ball slightly with your palm and then use a fork to create the classic nutter butter mark on the outside.
- bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges. the baking time may vary depending on the size and thickness of the cookies.
- while the cookies are baking, prepare the filling. in a separate bowl, mix dairy-free cream cheese, peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- once the cookies are baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
- once the cookies have cooled, add a generous dollop of the prepared filling to the center of each cookie.
- serve and enjoy your small batch vegan and gluten-free healthy nutter butter cookies!
