Description

Simple Gluten Free Sugar Cookies with Homemade Strawberry Icing! This recipe can be made egg and dairy free.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Cup Butter or Coconut Oil to make it dairy free
  • 1 Cup Coconut Sugar (you can use regular white sugar)
  • 1 Flaxseed Egg (Mix 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water or use commercial egg replacer )
  • 1 ½ tsp Vanilla
  • 1 ¼ Cup Almond Flour
  • 2 Cups Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking Powder
  • ¼ tsp  Salt
  • 1 tbsp Water

Instructions

  1. Mix the butter, sugar, and egg together until it’s creamed.
  2. While stirring add flaxseed egg.
  3. When it’s well mixed add flour, baking powder and salt.
  4. If needed add 1 tbsp of water. I find when I am not using a real egg I need to do this.
  5. Divide the Dough in half and wrap in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 2 – 12 hours.
  6. When ready, preheat the oven to 375 F.
  7. Roll out cookies and cut them out with your favourite design. Get creative!
  8. Bake for 6 – 8 mins. Watch carefully so you don’t get cookies with dark edges.
  9. While they cool on a baking rack, you can start making the icing.
  10. Note if using coconut sugar the cookies will turn out a little darker.
