Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Place coconut oil in stand mixer and beat at medium speed for about 3-5 minutes, or until coconut oil is soft and creamy.
- Slowly add sifted powdered sugar to the coconut oil and continue to beat until the coconut/sugar mixture has a similar consistency to icing.
- Add the gluten-free flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum and salt to the mixer and continue to beat until the cookie dough forms. It takes some time and a strong stand mixer for the flour and the coconut oil to fully blend together. Another option is to knead the dough by hand.
- Roll the dough into 1” balls and place on a cookie sheet. Use a fork to flatten the dough balls into cookies.
- Bake at 325F for 15 minutes
- Cool completely on a cooling rack
