24 servings
For the cookies
- 2 ¼ cups gluten free flour blend
- ½ tsp xanthan gum (omit if your blend already contains it)
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp fine salt
- ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
Chef's tipFor each egg, mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit until it thickens. It holds ingredients together but won't make things rise - best in pancakes, muffins, and cookies. - 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp milk
Chef's tipUse plain, unsweetened oat milk, measured 1:1. It works well in drinks, batters, sauces, and soups; avoid it where milk sets the texture, like custards, puddings, and frozen desserts.
