3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie with Sea Salt in 15 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line your tray with parchment. <small>Note: A hot oven is crucial for the immediate set of the cookie edges.</small>
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the natural peanut butter, coconut sugar, and egg.
3. Stir vigorously with a spatula until the oil is fully incorporated. Wait until the dough transforms into a matte, stiff ball that pulls away from the bowl.
4. Scoop tablespoon sized portions and roll them into smooth spheres between your palms. <small>Note: If the dough sticks to your hands, dampen them slightly with water.</small>
5. Place the spheres 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
6. Use a heavy duty fork to press a cross hatch pattern into each ball. Flatten them to approximately 1/2 inch thickness for even baking.
7. Generously sprinkle the flaky sea salt over the tops while the dough is still tacky.
8. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes until the edges are firm and mahogany colored.
9. Allow cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet. Wait until they are cool to the touch before moving them, as they firm up into a velvety texture during this time.
