Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Set aside a light colored cookie sheet.

    Combine peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and applesauce and mix until uniform.

  • Step 3

    Add in almond flour, cocoa powder, corn starch, baking soda, and salt. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
