Why Choose Gluten-Free Sugar Cookies?
A Delicious Option for Everyone
Gluten-free diets have become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. Not only do they help those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity to avoid uncomfortable symptoms, but many people have found that eliminating gluten from their diet can lead to improved overall health. These cookies are a great way to enjoy a sweet treat without the negative effects of gluten.
Healthier Ingredients
In addition to being gluten-free, these sugar cookies are also made with healthier ingredients. Traditional sugar cookies are typically loaded with refined sugar, white flour, and unhealthy fats. However, this recipe calls for almond flour, coconut oil, and natural sweeteners like maple syrup and coconut sugar. These substitutions not only make the cookies healthier, but they also add a delicious nutty flavor and a chewy texture.
Tips for Making the Perfect Gluten-Free Sugar Cookies
Don't Overwork the Dough
One of the biggest mistakes people make when baking gluten-free cookies is overworking the dough. Gluten is what gives traditional cookies their chewy texture, but without it, gluten-free cookies can become dry and crumbly if the dough is overworked. To avoid this, use a gentle hand when mixing the dough and try not to knead or roll it too much.
Use a Non-Stick Surface
Since gluten-free dough is more delicate than traditional dough, it's important to use a non-stick surface when rolling it out. You can either use a non-stick silicone mat or dust your work surface with a little bit of gluten-free flour. This will prevent the dough from sticking and make it easier to shape and cut.
Add Some Festive Flavor
To make these sugar cookies even more festive, consider adding some holiday flavors. You can mix in some dried cranberries, chopped nuts, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon to the dough before baking. You can also top them with a drizzle of melted dark chocolate or a sprinkle of crushed candy canes for a fun and festive touch.
