Keyword: gluten-free, refined sugar free
Servings: 6 dozen cookies
- 5 tbsp grass-fed butter softened
- 1/4 cup monkfruit or coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp raw honey
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup gluten-free 1:1 flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Using a mixer, beat the butter and sugar together. Then mix in the honey, yolk, and vanilla extract. Finally add the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon and mix.
Roll out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper or silicone baking mat to 1/4 inch thickness. Rub flour on the rolling pin if it is sticking to the dough.
Press down on the cutters and then gently press down on the middle button to add the design. Carefully remove the cutter and repeat. Once the dough is completely covered with animal shapes, remove the excess dough with a butter knife.
Bake for 20 minutes. While baking, roll out the leftover dough and repeat steps 2 and 3. Continue repeating until all of the dough is cut into shapes.
Let cookies cool and enjoy! These are best stored in an air-tight container on the counter).
