Sourdough Peanut Butter Cookies
prep time 15 minutes
cook time 12 to 15 min regular
IF YOU DO A LONG FERMENT, IT WOULD BE 10 minutes.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup butter, room temp
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup sourdough starter
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350°f. Place parchment paper on cookie sheet.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment. Combine sugars, butter, and peanut butter. Cream together for a few minutes until light and fluffy.
3. Add egg and mix well incorporated.
4. Add vanilla and sourdough starter and mix until just combined.
5. In a large mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients together.
6. Add the dry ingredients to wet ingredients about 1/3 at a time and mix until just incorporated.
7. Roll the dough into balls and place on prepared baking sheet.
8. Using a fork, gently press the dough ball with the prongs of the fork. Then, turn the fork 90° and press again to fatten and make a cross pattern.
9. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
10. Move to cooling rack to cool.
LONG FERMENTED VERSION
1. The night before, mix together butter, sugars, peanut butter, sourdough starter, and flour in a stand mixer and cover. Allow the grains to ferment for 8 to 24 hours.
2. The next day, preheat oven to 350°f.
3. Add egg and vanilla to the sourdough mixture, and mix together well.
4. Sprinkle the remaining dry ingredients into the bowl and stir.
5. For best results, refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour but can go all the way to 24 hours prior to baking.
6. Bake cookies for 10 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden amber color.
NOTES
For easy clean up, line baking sheet with parchment paper.
For this recipe, an active sourdough starter or discard will work. It is a great way to use extra starter, adds slight tanginess, and if long fermented, that will help break down the flour.
Make sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will make the cookies soft and chewy.
I sure hope you enjoy this recipe. If you liked this video, please give me a thumbs up 👍.
