Ingredients
  • 1 stick butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup cream peanut butter
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 1¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • ⅔ cup sweet sorghum flour
  • ⅔ cup brown rice flour
  • ⅔ cup white rice flour
  • ⅓ cup potato starch
  • ¼ cup tapioca starch
  • ½ cup coarsely chopped honey roasted peanuts
  • ⅓ cup roughly chopped pretzels
  • ⅓ cup roughly chopped gluten free graham crackers
Directions
  1. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream butter, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, and honey until smooth. Add eggs one at a time and beat until well incorporated. Add in peanut butter and vanilla and mix on low speed until thoroughly mixed.
  2. Add salt, baking soda, xanthan gum, sorghum flour, brown rice flour, white rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca starch and mix until well incorporated. Add chopped peanuts and mix on low speed until evenly distributed. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop walnut sized scoops of dough 2" apart on baking sheet. Lightly press pretzels and graham cracker pieces onto tops of cookie dough.* Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Remove cookies from oven and slide parchment paper with cookies onto cooling racks. Allow to completely cool. Bake remaining dough.
  5. Store cooled cookies in airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or in freezer for up to 3 months.
Notes
*Do not mix into the dough or they will become soft. Pressing them on top keeps them nice and crunchy!
