Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt to the peanut butter mixture. Stir until all ingredients are fully incorporated and you have a smooth dough.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter).
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Using the back of a fork, gently press a criss-cross pattern into the top of each cookie to flatten slightly.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just set and the tops are slightly golden.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your gluten-free peanut butter cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
