For the Cookies
  • 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for extra warmth)
  • ½ cup coconut oil or dairy-free butter, softened
  • ¾ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • ¼ cup maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 large egg (or flax egg: 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 2.5 tbsp water)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips (or chopped nuts, raisins, etc.)

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix the Dough
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. In a separate large bowl, mix coconut oil, coconut sugar, and maple syrup until smooth.
  3. Add the egg (or flax egg) and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  4. Gradually stir in the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
  5. Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips (or mix-ins of choice).
3. Shape & Bake
  1. Scoop about 1 ½ tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  2. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  3. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Storage & Freezing
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze cookie dough balls for up to 3 months and bake straight from frozen, adding 2 extra minutes.

Notes

  • Use almond flour instead of gluten-free all-purpose flour for a grain-free option.
  • Swap coconut sugar for white or brown sugar if preferred.
  • Add chopped nuts, raisins, or shredded coconut for extra texture.
