    Ingredients

    • Peanut Butter: The best peanut butter to use for 2 ingredient peanut butter cookies is a creamy peanut butter that is sugar free. It's best to not choose a chunky peanut butter, or one that is too oily.
    • Maple Syrup: Choose a high quality maple syrup that's marked 100% maple syrup. For more information on the suitability of maple syrup for vegans, have a look at my article.
