What can be better than soft peanut butter cookies? One giant cookie! This Apple Peanut Butter Skillet Cookie may be one of my favorite combinations ever. Made with oatmeal flour, maple syrup, loaded with creamy peanut butter, seasonal apples and hint of cinnamon.  This is another must make this season!

The recipe starts with fresh honeycrisp or gala apples, which are my favorite kind because of their crunchy texture and sweet and juicy taste. Simply slice them up and set aside while preparing the batter.

HEALTHY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE SKILLET SUBSTITUTIONS:

Oatmeal flour – This is the best and easiest to get flour to make any baking gluten-free. You can either blend oatmeal into a flour or get a store-bought oat flour.

Peanut butter – Make sure to use all natural creamy peanut butter. If it’s a little chunky simply microwave it for a few seconds. It can be also substituted with cashew, almond or sunflower butter!

Almond milk – any dairy-free, dairy milk or even water can be used in place of that.

Maple syrup & coconut sugar – can be swaped for honey and any other sugar substitute you like!

From start to finish you can whip this up and out of the oven in 30 minutes! Easy to make, quick and delicious. Isn’t that everybody’s favorite?! If you like peanut butter & dark chocolate combination check out the recipe here!
