I found this:

Honey: Substituting honey for sugar seems to be a matter of taste. Some people use it cup for cup, others prefer 1/2 cup - 2/3 cup of honey per cup of white sugar. Reduce the amount of other liquids by 1/4 cup for every cup of honey used. Lower the oven temp about 25 degrees F to prevent over-browning and add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda for each cup of honey to your batter.n (Honey is naturally acidic and the baking soda tempers it.)

Thanks kabowoman for this info, I will have to experiment a little with using honey in the PB cookie recipe :)

I made the five ingredient PB cookies today. Oh my gosh, Yummy! :D My hubby ate three, my neighbor (who doesn't even like PB) ate two, and...well...I ate the rest. :blink: Luckily, I'm out of PB now...can't make more tomorrow. I've got to stop this or my hips will be wearing PB cookies! :rolleyes:

God Vincent you crack me up.

cooked tonight and it was sooooo bad...tried to make a great dinner for hubby with his garden basil and did pesto, on grilled chicken / pasta..thought it sounded so good. It was awful probably b/c non of the processers worked....but being said, am going to try MY BAKING AGAIN. Everytime I bake with a package mix is get so sick. Again this week the 'd' is back so going to do these cookies.

3 ingre...i did it before and they were good --sprinkled some corse sugar over the top when hot and they were good..but not as good as the gfnaturals brownies..boy they were so good going down but...well...will let you figure out the rest of it.

thanks for the laugh.

made these yesterday and have decided 9 minutes is too long. They are a bit "crisp". We ate most of them though.

Does you oven run a tad hot? I find with my oven (brand new using convection style) it actually takes 11 minutes. I don't like them crisp either. I like mine more soft and chewy. You may want to cut back on the brown sugar. When I make them, I don't pack the brown sugar at all. Makes them a little softer!

I cannot tell you how many people have BEGGED me for the Peanut Butter cookie recipe I use.

1 cup PB

1 cup Brown Sugar

1 egg

1 Tsp Baking soda

1 cup chips

Bake at 350 for 9 minutes.

For the chocolate chips I have used the White chocolate/milk chocolate swirled ones, M&M mini's, mini milk chocolate ones, anything else you can thing of. Everyone, I mean, Everyone that has these LOVES these. Instead of CAKE for my birthday, my MOM made me these! I love them! OH SO GOOD! Dang good and oh so easy!

Monica

I made these and had some issues with the amount of oil in them so I made a second batch with ~1/2 C PB, ~1/2 C B Sugar, 1 egg, 1 tsp soda, no choc chips. I added ~2 T flax seed meal, ~4 T soy flour, enough rice flour to make them firm.

This worked for me and I can eat more than 1/2 a cookie! (Not that I need to)

I have a question for any of the bakers...

Can any of these 3 ingredient PB ccookie recipes be converted using honey as the sweetener rather than sugar??

I would probably use another nut butter (almond, etc.) as well.

If I just used nut butter, egg, and honey will it work?? Or do I need to make some kind of adjustment with the liquid/dry ratio

If you want/need to avoid sugar (I can't touch it) have you tried Stevia? But for these PB cookies, sugar is a main ingredient, supplying a fair amount of bulk and consistency. Neither honey or Stevia would work unless something more is done to retain consistency. As of this moment I'm not sure what would work. Google turns up some recipes, though I've yet to try any.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result. I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned? Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
