I made these today and they are PERFECT! Instead of the flour combination in the recipe, I used Trader Joe's gluten-free all purpose flour with an additional 1/8 cup GF flour. I will make this anytime I need cutout cookies or for a simple cookie with tea. The lemon is a wonderful addition. I'm an experienced baker, but these were easy enough for my toddler to assist. I've had to navigate through gluten-free baking for almost 2 yrs now and have created many recipes, revamped other and it's a real joy to stumble upon perfect recipes such as these cookies. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Akesia! I'm so glad that you and your little one are enjoying the cookies. Yes, I also love the lemon zest addition. I think it makes all the difference! I do many versions of each recipe before finalizing and posting it for the GlutenFreeHabit community, in hopes that it will be a success for everyone. It sounds like you're working hard on your own recipes as well! That's exciting! Hugs to your family, and keep watching for more recipes coming soon :)
I would absolutely LOVE a tangible Gluten Free Habit Cookbook!! My son has celiac disease and you are my ABSOLUTE go-to for recipes. I would use a cookbook until the pages would tatter!! Thank you so much for providing such Wonderful recipes! Happy Happy Holidays to you and yours....
Hi Lisa :) My apologies for the VERY delayed response but I want to thank you for your very kind comment. I'm so glad the recipes are a hit with your son! Please tell him I appreciate him giving them a try. I've had a number of requests for the cookbook , and you just never know...it would definitely be a lot of fun! We'll see what the future holds. Thank you so much for being part of the Gluten Free Habit community. XOXO
I won't be able to do these before Christmas as I would wish because I will still need to adjust them for high altitude. This always takes at least a few tries for me to get them right lol. Thank you for the video I just found you & believe me I will be back! Merry Christmas! UPDATE: Just wanted to let you know I changed my plans & used this recipe for this years Christmas. At 5000 ft elevation the only thing I had different was only 8 min baking time but that could be my oven different than yours so this recipe is a WIN for my altitude. thank you so much, I feel like one of the family again having my gluten free cookies. Now lets see how many of them even notice lol. Merry Christmas!!
Hi Josal! Thank you so much for sharing this with me! I'm so glad you GlutenFreeHabit, and also that you found a way to adjust these cookies for high altitude in time for Christmas!! I bet if you put these out with the other desserts no one will ever know they're GF. Watch them disappear :) Have a very Merry Christmas!! XOXO
I have a gluten-free friend who recently moved away, so I have a TON of gluten-free baking ingredients that I need to use up. Thank you so much for this recipe! Sugar cookies and cookie cutters is exactly what this afternoon demands!
Thoughts on substituting an oil like anise oil for the lemon zest? Before my Celiac diagnosis, my favorite Christmas cookie was a Polish pierniki cut-out cookie, which has heavy anise flavor (at least in my family). I would love to make a gluten free cut-out cookie that is similar. Thanks!
This is THEE BEST sugar cookie recipie I've ever tried! I brought them to a church lunch and got so many compliments! Definitely a keeper! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
Hi Hannah -Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts! I'm so glad the sugar cookies were a hit at church :) I think the little bit of lemon zest makes the difference, don't you? :)
If I wanted to make these a chocolate sugar cookie, I think I would skip the lemon and add some unsweetened pure cacao powder but just how much caca powder should I add? Any ideas? I also wanted to roll out the dough with a rolling pin that has a christmas shaped background throughout the entire rolling pin...should I do the final rolling pass with the background rolling pin before I refrigerate the dough or after I take it out of the fridge?
I'm adding these to my bake list. M staying with 2 guys who don't use their oven. Does not work. Lol. When hubby get back from deployment I will be back home in my own house to bake up a storm LOL
Hi Lise Marie - It sounds like your guys need an oven repair! You'll have to share what you bake with them later just to show them what they're missing :) Have those cookies waiting for that sweet husband of yours!! Tell him thank you for the difficult and important job he does!!! XOXO
It depends on the GF flour blend. I used the Trader Joe's Gluten-free All Purpose flour and it worked perfectly. These taste better than most traditional wheat flour cutout cookies. I'd suggest finding a GF blend with the same ingredients and trying it out or just following the recipe from this video.
My mum is gluten-free and sugar-free and so I'm making this for mother's day. I replaced the sugar with granulated erythritol and the flour I used Bob's Red Mill's blend. I did not chill it in the fridge. Turned out pretty well, a little spread, but not too much.

Baking soda is gluten free?

People's voices are one of my favorite things, and you have a really great voice.
Thanks! That's so nice of you:)
We miss you!
Can these be made with an egg substitute. For example just egg
Have you tried using flax meal instead of xanthan gum? I haven't tried, and I'm curious to know how well it works.
Where the measurements
Hi - You can find all of the recipes on my website at glutenfreehabit.com. I hope you enjoy the cookies!
What can we use instead of sugar ? 😋

Hi Amber...you're welcome :) I hope you enjoy the cookies!
Can the dough chill over night? I am tired. Bad idea to start this at 9PM lol
Hi Liz - It should work well. Having them chilled helps them keep their shape :) Thanks for asking!
This was a very informative video. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Tracey! Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. I hope you can make them soon!!
I love your videos could you make a 3 milk cake
If I use a premixed gluten free flour. How would I go sbout that? I don't have access to all those ingredients separately unfortunately
Thanks!!!
You can substitute for the combined amount. I use premix cup for cup flour from red Bob's and it comes out good.

Where do I find the full recipe? There is no proportions or any information about how much flour etc. I'll need to add
