As many of you know, I recently found out that I can’t eat gluten at all anymore…. not at all which is why you are going to see more and more Gluten free recipes here on Eating on a Dime.
This is the very first attempt I have done at making gluten free cookies and we love them. They fall apart easily but that is ok because they are a shortbread cookie. However, no one complained…. not even my gluten lovin’ boys. 🙂
Ingredients you need:
- 2 1/2 cups Almond Flour (I personally love Bob’s Red Mill)
- 6 tablespoons Butter, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar (or you can use Erythritol or other granular sweetener)
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
How to make Gluten Free Shortbread Cookies Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Parchment paper or a baking mat is really important when you are making gluten free cookies. I learned this quickly.
- Beat together the butter and sugar until it’s fluffy and light in color.
- Beat in the vanilla extract. Add in the almond flour. The dough will be thick and a little crumbly, but should stick when pressed together.
- Scoop tablespoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet.
- Flatten each cookie a little with the bottom of a glass cup. They will not spread or thin out during baking so make them as thin as you want them when done.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden and beginning to brown.
- Allow to cool completely in the pan before handling. Cookies cookies will harden as they cool.
