I bet you didn't know
that today is Peanut Butter Lover's Day
I miss my peanut butter and banana sammiches with a passion. Bandsters can't eat bread (or most of us anyway) and peanut butter on a banana w/out the bread just isnt the same
There is a great peanut butter that I use Smart balance...good for you and tastes good to!!!
Here's a great recipe to honor this special day!!
1 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 tbsp vanilla
1 cup Splenda
Mix and roll into balls (about walnut sized) and flatten with fork dipped in Splenda. Bake at 350 for 12 minutes.
TIPS
-Do NOT overocok -- they will get crumbly since there's no gluten
-Peanut butter is naturally low sugar - the low sugar kind only reduces it by 1g per serving.
-If you're picky about artificial sweeteners, I've done a 3/1 with splenda and sugar to cut the after taste and it's good. Presently, I do full-splenda in the cookies, and roll in regular sugar and that's good too. I've also added semi-sweet chocolate chips to shake things up.
