Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
  • 1 tsp cream of tartar
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Cinnamon sugar rolling mixture
  • 1/4 cup sanding sugar
  • 2 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Mix with a hand mixer or stand mixer for about 1 minute. Beat in the egg and vanilla
    extract. 
  • Next, add the remaining dry ingredients. Make sure you level the flour before adding it to the mixture.
  • Once it is mixed, scoop it into balls about 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp in size. Roll them
    in the cinnamon sugar rolling mixture. Then place them on the lined baking
    sheet, about 6-9 cookies per sheet. Set them in the fridge for about 30 mins to 1 hour.
  • Bake for about 10-14 minutes. The cookies will harden as they cool.

Notes

  • You can substitute sanding sugar with regular sugar.
  • If you do not have cream of tartar you can
    substitute that AND the baking soda with 1 tsp of baking powder.
  • If you like chewy snickerdoodles, take cookies
    out of the oven on the earlier side as they will continue to firm up when they
    cool.
