Ingredients

For the Cookies:

1 1/2 cups sugar

16 tablespoons

2 large eggs, at room temperature

1/2 teaspoon vanilla paste or pure vanilla extract

3 cups Gluten-Free Flour Blend

1 tablespoon baking powder

3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

For the Coating:

1/4 cup sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Directions

Position the racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F . Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Put the sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low until well blended. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and stir into the butter mixture. Mix the sugar and cinnamon for rolling in a small bowl. Use a 3/4-ounce scoop to portion the dough into generous 1 1/2-tablespoon balls, roll each one in the cinnamon sugar, and lay out on the prepared pans, leaving 2 inches between them. Bake for 10 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through, or until just set and turning golden brown around the edges. Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes on the pans, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. The snickerdoodles can be kept in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
