Gluten-Free Vegan Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees(F).
2 Now, in a small bowl, make a flax egg by whisking together the flax meal and water. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
3 Next, in a large mixing bowl, add the peanut butter, brown sugar and cane sugar. Using a hand mixer, or stand mixer, beat together until fully combined. 
4 Then, add the flax egg you made, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Continue to mix until everything is incorporated. 
5 Pour in the chocolate chips and peanuts. Then fold them in with a large spoon or spatula. 
6 Taking about 1 tablespoon of dough at a time, roll the dough into balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or sprayed with non-stick spray. Place each cookie about 2 inches apart from the others. You will probably need to do 2 batches.
7 Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. Let cool completely before eating.
