These Gluten Free Maple Snickerdoodle Cookies are everything you’d ever want in a cookie. They are soft and chewy and rolled in a sweet cinnamon maple sugar coating. The perfect cookie to enjoy with your family and friends and they’re even gluten free and dairy free. Everyone is going to be asking you for the recipe!
If you don’t like snickerdoodle cookies, I don’t know if we can be friends. Just kidding, we can still be friends but I might have to make you these to change your mind about snickerdoodles! These are hands down in my top 5 cookies I’ve ever eaten (even before I was gluten free). They are deliciously chewy and soft and topped with cinnamon maple sugar. If that doesn’t make your taste buds do a happy dance, I don’t know what will!
Flour: this recipe calls for gluten free 1-to-1 flour (bob’s red mill) and almond flour to make a perfect blend that is gluten free.
Baking Soda: this will give the cookies a little rise and combine with the cream of tartar to make the perfect snickerdoodle.
Cream of Tartar: don’t skip the cream of tartar! It’s a snickerdoodle must-have ingredient.
Cinnamon: there is quite a bit of cinnamon in this recipe but that's because it’s a SNICKERDOODLE COOKIE RECIPE. Okay that was dramatic but cinnamon is another key ingredient.
Butter: I use dairy free vegan butter in this recipe but you could use regular if you prefer.
Brown Sugar and Maple Syrup: they come together and give that perfect sweet flavor to the cookie.
Vanilla Extract: cookies always need a bit of vanilla in my opinion.
Egg: just one egg needed in this recipe.
Maple Sugar: used in the cinnamon sugar coating and gives this cookie it's delicious maple flavor.
Flatten the dough slightly: After you’ve dipped the cookie ball into the cinnamon sugar, place it on the baking sheet and slightly flatten the ball. This will ensure that you get that perfectly soft and chewy thin snickerdoodle cookie.
Don’t over bake: I recommend baking the cookie for 10 minutes but the bake time depends on the size and true temperature of your oven. To make sure your cookies come out perfectly, consider testing one cookie to see what the ideal bake time is before cooking the whole batch.
Store: Store these gluten free maple snickerdoodle cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
