The Food Connect

Brief Background: According to ABC News, George Washington Carver wanted to promote the consumption and growth of peanuts, instead of promoting cotton. If you’re interested look up the cookbook called ,” How To grow the Peanut & 105 Ways of Preparing it for Human consumption.”

Why I decided to make peanut butter cookies: I wanted to do something simple, yet healthy. I wanted to make a healthy version of a peanut butter cookie. I have made peanut butter cookies before but they were full of sugar.

What I liked about this recipe: For this recipe, I liked the fact that a substitute was used instead of regular sugar. The recipe required the use of Erythritol. Also, there was minimal ingredients needed to make the cookies. I liked the fact that it was Keto. I also like the fact that I used plain peanut butter with no added sugar. It also had a nice taste and was soft when it came out of the oven.

What I did not like/What I messed up: Honestly, I liked everything about this recipe, although I did experience some confusion about whether it was done or not. The cookie hardened the longer they were out of the oven.
