Ingredients

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan and cool it off a bit.
    2. Add gluten-free flour, almond flour, arrowroot flour, coconut sugar, spices, salt, and baking soda to a mixing bowl and mix it.
    3. In a small mixing bowl, mix vanilla, eggs, molasses, avocado oil, and melted butter.
    4. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet until a soft dough forms. The dough is still a tiny bit sticky; that's how it's supposed to be.
    5. Roll into balls, sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on top if you like a sparkly finish, and bake for 13 minutes at 350°F, until the tops puff and crack. They’ll fall slightly as they cool, creating that picture-perfect holiday cookie look.
