200g smooth peanut butter

110g soft brown sugar

1 large egg

¼ teaspoon baking powder

pinch salt

Method

Heat the oven to Gas Mark 5/Fan 170°C/190°C.

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or grease well

Combine the ingredients until well mixed with a wooden spoon or electric mixer.

Divide the mix into 12 pieces and roll into round balls – or spoon directly onto the tray. Place well apart on the baking sheets. Use a fork to press down into a flatter shape and to pattern the top – use the fork at right angles too to make a pattern.

Cook for 10 – 12 minutes until lightly golden. Leave to cool on the tray and store in an airtight tin when cool.
