Gluten-Free Snickerdoodle Cookies(Keto Option)

Gluten-Free Snickerdoodle Cookies(Keto Option)

Hillary and Chris Johnsonare expecting their third child!

Sweet, Buttery and bursting with cinnamon flavour..what more could you want in a cookie?

I recently got the chance to taste a snickerdoodle gluten-free cookie that my Mother was so kind to bring me home from a local gluten-free bakery. The cookie was apparently their top seller so I was extremely excited to try it! Much to my disappointment the cookie was dry and SUPER sweet. It tasted like something you'd get in a package. I thought to myself that I could have made a better cookie! So..of course, me being a little competitive, I did just that (at least I think). These cookies are a little more crumbly than I would have liked (sometimes an issue with almond flour). But the flavour is delicious! I definitely would have devoured the whole plate in one sitting if I didn't have some level of self control..lol. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Ingredients:

-1 cup(120g) gluten-free oat flour (OR ~ 1/4 cup(28g)-1/3 cup(37g) coconut flour-start with 1/4 cup and add more as needed to reach cookie dough consistency)
-1/2 cup +2 tbsp almond flour(70g)
-1 tbsp flax meal(5g)
-1/4 tsp salt
-1/4 tsp cinnamon
-1/4 tsp xanthan gum
-1/2 cup unsalted butter(120g), softened
-1/4 cup + 1 tbsp sugar (Can sub 2 tbsp truvia or another sweetener)
-2 tbsp truvia
-2 tbsp brown sugar (Can sub a sweetener + 1/8 tsp molasses)
-1 egg
-1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Topping:
-1 tsp cinnamon
-1 tbsp sugar
-1 tbsp Truvia

(Combine all 3 in a small bowl)

Directions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350*F.
  2. Combine all dry ingredients except the sugars in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat together the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and sweetener.
  4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients and freeze the batter for 15min.
  5. Roll the batter into 12 large balls, roll in cinnamon/sugar mixture and place on a greased baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15-20min or until cookies are set.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool COMPLETELY before gently removing them from the tray (they will be quite fragile).
  8. Place in and airtight container or enjoy immediately!

Nutrition: 12f/15c/3p & 2g fibre when using all of the ingredients as listed above! If you sub coconut flour and sweetener for the sugar the total carb count will be MUCH less!
