Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Add softened butter, coconut sugar, brown sugar, molasses, and vanilla to a bowl and beat together until smooth.
Add one egg, the spices, and salt and mix together until combined.
Lastly, add the baking soda & gluten free flour (1/4 cup at a time) until completely mixed in the mixer.
Place the bowl in the fridge for 30 min- 1 hour to set. *See note for using cookie cutters
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to create little balls of dough and place onto a baking sheet. If you're using a spoon roll the dough between your hands into a ball. Note: the dough will be sticky- wash hands if the dough gets stuck. (Disregard if doing cookie cut outs)
Optional: add 1 tsp of coconut sugar and cinnamon to the tops of each cookie.
Place baking sheet into the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes. Note: Your dough balls will expand and the sugar will turn golden brown.
Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes.
Serve with a glass of milk & enjoy!

Notes

You can also roll dough into a ball and wrap in Saran Wrap. Once chilled, flatten dough using rolling pin & feel free to use cookie cutters to make shapes. Adjust cook times based on dough's thickness.
