Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set the mixture aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Add the large egg and pure vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, beating on low speed until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, placing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft. Do not overbake.
Step 8
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Enjoy your freshly baked gluten-free vanilla cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
