Ingredients
- 200 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 113 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Kosher salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing until well incorporated.
Step 4
Gradually add the gluten-free all-purpose flour to the butter mixture, stirring gently until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 6
Use a cookie cutter to cut shapes out of the dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 7
Bake the shortbread cookies in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are just beginning to turn golden around the edges.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
