GLUTEN-FREE COCONUT FLOUR SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Gluten-Free Coconut Flour Shortbread Cookies image

These buttery-rich, crisp shortbread cookies are a great wheat-free alternative to classic shortbread. Without the additional coconut flavor, they have the faint aroma and taste of coconut thanks to coconut flour. With the flavor, you'll have a cookie with robust coconut taste, perfect for dunking into a pot of chocolate fondue or glass of milk.

Ingredients

¼ cup King Arthur Coconut Flour
¼ cup King Arthur Gluten-Free Flour
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup softened unsalted butter
¼ teaspoon salt
1 large egg
⅛ teaspoon coconut flavoring, for stronger flavor

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment.
Mix all the ingredients, by hand or mixer, until a well-blended, cohesive dough forms; this will take about 2 minutes at medium-low speed in a stand mixer.
Drop the cookie dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet (a teaspoon cookie scoop works well here), leaving 1 inch between them; these cookies won't spread much when they bake.
Use a fork to flatten each cookie to about 1/4 inch thick, making a cross-hatch design.
Bake the cookies for 8 to 12 minutes, until just browned on the bottom. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet.

I'm not a fan of coconut, but I actually really liked these cookies. The coconut flavor is very subtle.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste. I'll probably reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I love the crispy edges and soft centers of these cookies. They're the perfect balance of textures.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover coconut flour. I always have a bag of it in my pantry, and these cookies are a quick and easy way to use it up.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and hard. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

These cookies are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little bit more butter next time.

These cookies are amazing! I love the combination of coconut and almond flour. They're also surprisingly filling, so I can have a few without feeling guilty.

I was surprised at how easy these cookies were to make. I'm not a baker, but I was able to follow the instructions and make delicious cookies that my whole family loved.

I've tried many gluten-free shortbread cookie recipes, and this one is definitely the best. The texture is perfect and the coconut flavor is subtle but noticeable.
