Grain Free Peanut Butter Cream Cookies
I have been on a bit of a peanut butter frenzy in the past couple of weeks, so here I am with some delicious grain-free peanut butter cream cookies!
I know they look kind of impressive, (well at least I think they do), but these peanut butter cream filled cookies are actually just a fortuitous combination of two of my recent posts: Easy Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies and Easy Healthy Peanut Butter Mousse. Did you notice that both of the recipes are prefaced with the term 'Easy', so yes there is nothing tricky about these grain-free peanut butter cream cookies.
The cream filling is literally a mix of peanut butter and banana, but it looks so much more decadent than that and still tastes awesome! My kids were very impressed when I pulled these out for a fancy afternoon tea!
If you also have peanut butter loving kids (or perhaps you are a peanut butter lover yourself, then do check out some of my other great peanut butter recipes: Peanut Butter Chicken Salad Sandwich, Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge, Choc Chip Peanut butter Pumpkin Cookies or my No-Bake Apple Oat Bites

These cookies use almond meal, I love love love baking with ground almonds, as they add protein and good fats into the baking so a little of extra nutrition for the kiddos!

Hi what brand of peanut butter do you use? Thanks 🙂
I'm a big fan of pics peanut butter as it has a really roasty flavour, you can get it without added salt, but even the added slat version is low compared to most. And the ingredients is just peanuts!
