The Perfect Gluten Free Snickerdoodle
Gluten Free Snickerdoodles get a bad rap because it can be hard to recreate the chewiness of a classic snickerdoodle while maintaining the integrity and structure of the cookie itself. My gluten free snickerdoodle recipe finds that happy medium making it indistinguishable from the real thing -- and I have about 15 non-gluten free friends that can back me up on this one!
Cream of tartar might seem like an interesting ingredient choice here but it provides a subtle tartness to the cookie that helps balance out the sweet exterior.

- Preheat your oven to 350F.
- Combine gluten free flour, almond flour, potato starch, baking soda, xanthan gum, salt, and cream of tartar.
- In a separate bowl beat egg, butter, vanilla, and sugar until light in color and fluffy.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients being careful to not over mix.
- Chill your cookie dough for 1 hour (this helps with the stickiness when tossing them in cinnamon-sugar.)
- After the cookie dough is nice and chilled, roll into balls and toss in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 10 minutes and then move to a cooling rack.
