Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies (Gluten-Free, Oil-Free)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Add the natural peanut butter, coconut sugar, applesauce and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl. Mix until completely combined. 3. Add flour and baking soda to the wet ingredients and mix. Don't over mix! Fold in the chocolate chips. 4. Measure out a heaping tablespoon of the dough for each cookie, roll into a ball then flatten them into a cookie shape. I got about 11 cookies. 5. Bake for 8-9 minutes. As they cool, they will set. Wait 20 minutes for them to completely cool. Careful not to over-bake! They will dry out.
