How to make Homemade Nutter Butter cookies
Making homemade Nutter Butter cookies is very simple, and you only need three main ingredients: a nut butter of your choice, all-purpose flour, and honey. Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating your delicious batch of homemade Nutter Butter cookies.
- Preheat your oven to 340°F (170°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the nut butter, honey and all-purpose flour. Mix everything together until you have a smooth and consistent cookie dough.
- Using your hands, roll the cookie dough into small balls, each about 1 inch in diameter. Place the dough balls in joined pairs next to each other, leaving some space between them as they will spread slightly while baking.
- To achieve the classic peanut-shaped design, use a fork to gently press down on each dough ball, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake the cookies in the air fryer for approximately 10 minutes or until they are lightly golden around the edges. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking.
- Once done, remove the cookies from air fryer and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
