This is it my friends. The ultimate in gluten free cookies. Mr. Fearless Dining has always been a fan of snickerdoodles,  but for some reason, I have never made one for the blog.

Maybe I thought I had blogged this recipe years ago, or maybe I haven’t made these often enough  :-). (I know  Mr. Fearless Dining would say I don’t make them often enough!)

Snickerdoodles have a cute name and you can check out the story behind these cookies.

What do snickerdoodles taste like?

Snickerdoodle cookies have a  sweet cinnamon sugar flavor. The cookies are buttery and light. The secret to a good snickerdoodle is to roll the unbaked dough in a cinnamon-sugar blend.

Although snickerdoodles are typically a really soft cookie, this recipe adds a little crisp to accommodate the ice cream, making them perfect for ice cream sandwiches.

We love to use snickerdoodles for ice cream sandwiches! It makes the perfect summer gluten free dessert!

Are you ready to see how easy these Gluten Free Snickerdoodle Cookies are to make? First, gather your ingredients.

How to make this gluten free snickerdoodle cookie recipe:

Add the dry ingredients into a bowl and whisk to blend.

What gluten free flour blend is best for these snickerdoodles?

I have tested two gluten free flour blends in this recipe. I liked King Arthur Gluten Free Measure for Measure and Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten Free Flour Blend. This doesn’t mean other blends won’t work, I just haven’t tested any others. Try to avoid flour blends that are high in starch.

As always, if your blend does not contain Xanthan Gum, you will need to add 1 teaspoon.

Next, add the wet ingredients to the bowl and mix well.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well.

Your snickerdoodle cookie dough will be a little stiff. Use a cookie scoop to scoop dough balls and drop into a  bowl of sugar and cinnamon.

Roll the dough balls in the cinnamon-sugar mix and put onto a cookie sheet.

Use a glass bottom to smoosh the cookies flat.

How long do you bake snickerdoodles for?

Bake at 350F degrees for 8-10 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies.

Can you freeze gluten free cookies?

You can definitely freeze these gluten free cookies! They taste delicious frozen too!
