Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups Gluten-Free Baking Flour
- 1 Tsp Baking Powder
- 2 Tbsp Konsyl Organic Psyllium Husk Powder
- 1 Cup Swerve Granular (or your preferred sugar alternative)
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 Tsp Almond Extract (optional)
- 3/4 Cup Coconut Oil (softened)
- 1/4 Tsp Salt
Instructions:
- Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, Konsyl Organic Psyllium Husk Powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened coconut oil and Swerve until creamy and smooth. Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract to incorporate.
- Merge the Dry & Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too crumbly, add 1-2 Tbsp of water.
- Chill, Roll and Cut the Dough
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap & chill for 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create shapes & transfer to prepared baking sheets.
- Bake, Cool & Decorate
Bake 8-10 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before Icing.
