Welcome to Luggage and Ladle

Welcome

Welcome to Luggage & Ladle For years, this blog was simply a place to collect and share favorite recipes. What started as a personal recipe archive gradually became something more. As my husband Blake and I traveled, I realized many of our adventures had one thing in common: food. We plan our travels around where to eat. Long before we book a hotel or decide which attractions to visit, we're researching local specialties, hidden gems, neighborhood restaurants, bakeries, markets, and can't-miss meals. Some of our favorite travel memories aren't landmarks or attractions. They're meals shared around a table. Many of the recipes you'll find here have a story behind them. Some are family favorites. Others were inspired by memorable meals we discovered while traveling and couldn't wait to recreate at home. That's how Luggage & Ladle was born.

Healthier Peanut Butter Cookies

 We love sweets but our waistlines certainly do not.  My husband literally eats peanut butter out of the jar. These cookies combine both our love of sweets and his love of peanut butter, but in a way that helps a little with our sugar consumption.  You won't miss the regular sugar though and they are gluten and dairy free!

  • 1 cup natural, no sugar added peanut butter
  • 1 cup Swerve granular sweetener (or monkfruit sweetener)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tp vanilla
  • fleur de sel 
  • dark chocolate chips (optional)

Preheat oven to 325

Mix all ingredients well (except fleur de sel and chocolate chips) and using a spoon or scoop, place tablespoon size balls on a parchment lined cookie sheet.  Using a fork press down slightly and then turn and criss cross the fork to create a pattern.  Press chocolate chips into top of each cookie (if using).  Sprinkle each cookie with fleur de sel.  Bake for 17 minutes.  Remove and let cool for 10-15 minutes.  Store in a tightly covered container.  Cookies will be soft, but will harden as they cool.
