Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
Note: The dough may be slightly sticky; refrigerate it for about an hour to make it easier to handle.
In a small bowl, mix together some sugar and cinnamon for rolling the cookie dough balls.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until coated.
Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten them with the bottom of a glass or your hand.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
