Description

So soft and chewy, you will never believe they’re gluten-free, dairy-free, and egg-free! Hello Christmas!

Ingredients

  • 5 Tablespoons Vegan Butter, At Room Temperature
  • ⅓ cups Raw Organic Cane Sugar, Plus 2 Tablespoons For Rolling
  • 2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Applesauce
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ½ teaspoons Almond Extract
  • 1 cup Oat Flour (110g, See Note)
  • 1 Tablespoon Non-GMO Cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silpat.

In a large bowl using an electric hand mixer, cream butter and 1/3 cup of sugar until well combined. Add applesauce, vanilla and almond extract and beat until well mixed.

Add remaining ingredients (except remaining 2 tablesoons sugar) into the bowl and stir until a soft dough forms. Cover bowl and refrigerate for 10–15 minutes so the dough is easier to work with.

Spread remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar on a plate and roll the cookies into slightly heaping 1-tablespoon balls. Roll them through the sugar and then place on prepared pan, pressing them down just slightly—you want them to have some good height,

Bake until edges are a touch golden brown and tops feel set (they firm up a lot once cooled), about 10–11 minutes. Let cool on the pan completely. Devour!

Note: As with all gluten-free baking, please weigh your flour to ensure results.
