I bought some organic peanut butter and I didn't like it much on it's own, so I found a way to incorporate it into a recipe and use it up. That's how I came up with these 5 ingredient cookies.

Preparation Time: 2 hours bake time for almond flour
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Makes: about 10 cookies

Ingredients
1/2 cup almond flour
2 tablespoons of organic peanut butter
1/8 cup dark chocolate chips or buttons cut into four
2 tablespoons raw organic honey
1 egg

Method
To make the almond flour
once it's been made and strained the left over is called almond pulp. You need to dehydrate it at 160 degrees for about 1 and 1/2 to 2 hours you then blitz with a stick blender to make a floury texture. Mine is never completely powdery it's a bit chunky but I like that. If you don't want to make the milk and spend the time making the flour, these can be made with almond meal, but the texture is different so it's not quite the same. I prefer the almond flour.
To make the cookies
Finally onto making the cookies, this is the easy part

Health benefits
Almond flour- fibre
Peanut Butter- good fats and proteins
