This Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are a little variation of our normal almond flour biscuits crossed with our brownie sandwiches… and it is so good, and so simple! Think nutter butter cookies, but healthy.
Just 4 ingredients and 15 minutes from start to finish, it’s a healthy toddler (& adult) snack that is an absolute favourite for us!
Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies
Ingredients
COOKIE INGREDIENTS:
- 2/3 cup/70g of almond flour
- 1/3 cup/85g of natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup/60mls of maple syrup
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract (optional)
FILLING INGREDIENTS:
- 1/4 cup/60g of natural peanut butter
- 1-2 Tbsp of maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180c/350f.
- Add all of the cookies ingredients to a bowl, and stir together.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper, then take around 1 heaped teaspoon of the mix in your hand and roll into a ball, placing the ball on a sheet of baking paper. Repeat for an even amount (24-28 roughly to make 12-14 sandwiches).
- Lightly flatten each cookie with a fork to create a crosshatch pattern (wet the fork if it’s sticking), then bake for 7-8minutes until lightly golden.
- While the cookies are baking, make the filling by stirring the peanut butter and maple syrup together.
- Leave the cookies to cool on the tray, then add the filling by gently spreading with the back of a spoon then squeezing to combine them.
- Enjoy!

NOTES:
Subs: you can substitute the maple syrup with rice syrup or agave.
You can swap the almond flour for oat flour, this will result in firmer cookies.
Swap the peanut butter for any nut or seed butter of choice; opt for 100% nut/seed with no added oils, sugar, or salt.
Store in an airtight container on the bench for 3 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
