INGREDIENTS USED IN PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR
Whole wheat flour offers a healthier alternative to refined flour, adding fiber and a nutty flavor. It contributes to the structure of the cookies while imparting a slightly denser texture, making them more wholesome.
MILK
Milk helps dilute the batter to achieve the desired consistency. This makes the batter easier to work with and results in a smoother texture. I have used Nestle milk for this recipe.
BUTTER
Butter helps create a tender and crumbly texture in the biscuits. It acts as a binding agent, helping to hold the ingredients together. This is essential for forming a cohesive dough that can be easily shaped into biscuits. Butter aids in the browning of the biscuits during baking, giving them an appealing golden color.
PEANUT BUTTER
Peanut butter acts as a binding agent and also gives structure to the cookie.It also provides a beautiful flavor to the cookie.
EQUIPMENTS USED IN MAKING PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
The kind of equipment you use when you’re baking makes a huge difference to the end result! I would recommend you to use good quality mixing bowls and other equipment so that your Peanut Butter Cookies comes out delicious!
To mix all my ingredients together, I’m using Borosil’s 100% Borosilicate Glass Bowl which is microwave and oven safe, plus the bowls are super easy to clean and handle, which makes my baking process totally hassle free!
Not a single day goes in my kitchen when I don’t use a Silicon Spatula, this is the one I recommend. Same goes for my set of Measuring Cups and Measuring Spoons.
