EASY Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Cookies

I'm due for our first baby on April 15, 2010, and as a result my gluten-free baking has slowed way down. I just don't have as much energy as usual during these last weeks of pregnancy. :)

Here is a gluten-free recipe, however, that even I still have the energy for ... and it's so delicious, no one would guess how little effort it takes to make, nor that it's gluten-free. So turn on the oven and pull out a cookie sheet and try out these delicious, gluten-free peanut butter cookies!

1 cup peanut butter*
1 cup white sugar
1 egg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine ingredients and drop by teaspoonsfuls onto a cookie sheet lined with a silicone mat (or sprayed lightly with Baking Spray). Press with a fork, making a cross, and sprinkle with a little sugar. Bake for 8 minutes. Makes 1 dozen cookies.

*Most peanut butters do not contain gluten, but a few brands do throw in modified food starch or some sort of gluten-product, so be sure to check the ingredients.
