Gluten-free snickerdoodles are just as soft and chewy as the classic cookies, but these are perfect for friends or loved ones with gluten-free needs. Give them as a gift during the holidays or enjoy them yourself as a rich little indulgence.

Ingredients

Gluten-Free Snickerdoodles

• 1 cup butter or vegan butter, room temperature
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1 Tbs honey
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 2 ½ cups gluten-free flour 
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt

For rolling:

• 3 Tbs sugar
• 1 Tbs cinnamon

Directions

1. Begin by preheating the oven to 350ºF and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the room temperature butter, sugar, and honey, and cream with a hand mixer until smooth. Then add in the vanilla and apple cider vinegar.
3. Next, in a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt.
4. Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the wet ingredients stirring until it’s fully incorporated. The dough should be thick and firm. Allow the dough to set up by chilling in the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes to an hour. You can cover the bowl with cling wrap or wrap the dough itself in cling wrap, forming it into a ball.
5. When you’re ready to roll out the dough, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
6. Then, roll the dough into about 1-inch balls and then gently toss them into the cinnamon-sugar. Place the cookie balls onto the baking sheet, leaving them about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes. Allow them to cool before enjoying!
