Notes & Wine Advice
Recipe Notes
Powdered peanut butter contains less fat than traditional peanut butter because manufacturers press much of the natural oil from the peanuts before grinding them into powder. Spread the cookie mixture evenly in the pizza pan. An even thickness helps the centre cook at the same rate as the edges. Check the cookie near the end of the cooking time. Air fryers vary, so yours may need slightly less or more than 8 minutes. Allow the cookie to rest briefly before slicing. As it cools, the texture becomes firmer and the slices hold together better.Wine Advice
A fruity Banyuls works beautifully with peanut butter and vanilla. Its rich, sweet character complements the nutty cookie without losing its own flavor.Nutrition values
