easy shortbread cookies

Easy, crispy shortbread cookies that are undetectably vegan, gluten-free, and naturally sweetened! Made in 1 bowl with just 7 ingredients.

Vegan Gluten-Free Shortbread Cookies (1 Bowl)

almond flour

gluten-free flour

tapioca flour ((also called tapioca starch))

tsp baking soda

tsp sea salt

coconut oil

maple syrup

Preheat the oven to 350 F (176 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium mixing bowl (or food processor) whisk (or blend) together almond flour, gluten-free flour blend, tapioca flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Add in the solid coconut oil (if the coconut oil has liquified, simply place it into the fridge for a couple of minutes) and with clean hands (or a pastry cutter, or by pulsing in the food processor), begin mixing the solid coconut oil with the dry ingredients until no obvious lumps of coconut oil remain. The texture should look sandy and hold together in clumps when you squeeze it.

Add maple syrup and mix with a spatula or wooden spoon (or pulse in the food processor) until combined. It should look like play dough — scoopable, moldable, not too tacky or crumbly.

Place a piece of parchment or wax paper on the counter and transfer the cookie dough onto the paper. Mold the dough together into a disc and place another piece of parchment or wax paper on top of the dough. Using a rolling pin, begin rolling the dough between the pieces of paper until it is 1/4-inch thick. Then, using a 2-inch circle cookie cutter, cut out as many cookies as possible (see notes if you don’t have a cookie cutter). Use a spatula or butter knife to carefully transfer the cookies to the parchment-lined baking sheet(s). They won’t spread too much, so they should all fit on one large baking sheet (but do use more as needed to avoid overcrowding).

Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges just begin to turn golden brown (a little cracking on top is normal). While the cookies bake, roll out any remaining dough and cut more cookies. Then repeat the baking process with remaining dough.

Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Enjoy with a glass of dairy-free milk or a warm cup of English breakfast tea. Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

(227 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature

(65 grams) powdered sugar

(225 grams) all-purpose flour

sprinkles (optional)

Preheat oven to 300F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Using an electric mixer or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla if using and beat for another minute.

Stir in half the flour until just combined. Repeat with the rest of the flour.

Lightly dust your hand with powdered sugar and roll the dough into 1&#8243; balls (about 1 tablespoon each). Use the tines of a small fork dipped in powdered sugar to slightly flatten the cookie dough. Add some sprinkles on top if desired.

Amateur baker here... Discovered this recipe on the 19th Dec 2022 and already have made 4 batches of these in 5 days... They're amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this! Absolute game changer!

So simple, so good! Used vanilla bean paste and a little bit of almond extract. Rolled in sprinkles for half the batch, made a small dip in the middle and put in 1/4 tsp of guava jam for the rest. These make excellent shortbread jam thumbprints but are also delicious on their own. Baked my 1" flattened cookies for about 15 minutes.

So good and easy to make! Thank you for no corn starch recipe. These cookies can bake at higher temperature just fine. I baked mine at 350F, for about 15 min.

Easy and delicious! I used a small scooper to make the cookies and added sprinkles. Given the size, it took closer to 25 min to bake. Will be making more for the holidays - thank you!!
