But peanuts themselves come from a long way on the road of human history. Originally from the tropical part of the American continent, peanuts are grown in many places and enjoyed globally as a snack or serious protein source.
It was an important crop in South America and used by the Aztecs and Incas in the US, it was way less appreciated for way too long. Once it grew out of its status as a colonial era garden crop or animal fodder, it made a candidate in the Southern American States to be recommended as an alternative protein source.

How to make Peanut butter cookies
Old school
- Mix the ingredients until a uniform texture is formed.
- Roll the dough out into two logs so it will be easier to measure out the cookie sizes if we are after a somewhat uniform sized cookie batch. Try out how the different sized dough spread and pick the one that is closes to our heart. We have found the 0.5 oz / 15g balls are the perfect size for our cookies.
- Press them down vertically with a wet or slightly oiled fork. Then do it horizontally as well.
- Put the cookies into a 350°F / 180°C preheated oven for about 15 minutes.
Enjoy!
