Sugar Cookies
Sugar Cookies
(Gluten, Dairy and Egg Free)
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon egg replacer equivalent to 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/2 cup vegan butter softened (I like Earth Balance baking sticks)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups gluten free all-purpose flour
- Dye free sugar sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- In a small bowl, stir the egg replacer and water together and allow to set up for five minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix together the vegan butter, sugar, vanilla, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the egg replacer.
- Next, add in the flour, stirring until well combined.
- Using two tablespoons, drop the dough onto the baking sheet, leaving about 1 1/2" between them. Dough should yield 1 dozen cookies. Flatten the cookies with the bottom of glass and sprinkle each cookie with colored sugar sprinkles.
- Bake the cookies for 7 to 8 minutes, until they're barely set, and a light golden brown around the edges. Be careful not to over-bake, cookies will set up as they cool. Allow the cookies to sit on the sheet pan for 3-5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.
