I adore Linzer Cookies and now I can have them Gluten Free? I’m in love! I’ve always been partial to heart shaped cookies especially this time of year.

Gluten Free Gingersnaps-Crisp and Spicy
Gluten Free Gingersnaps. The smell is what gets me every time. The sweet fragrance of ginger and cinnamon, sugar and molasses all blending into crisp perfection in a hot oven. Of all the Christmas cookie recipes I make, the one shouting CHRISTMAS the loudest has to be Gingersnaps. I like them snappy crisp, full of pungent spice and a little bit of heat as you savor the buttery flavor. I’ve discovered a way to make them gluten free which brings great joy to my husband’s and my seriously gluten intolerant guts.

Coconut Brown Butter Cookies–Gluten Free
Coconut Brown Butter Cookies? Are you serious??? I’m a huge fan of anything coconut and truly, adding brown butter just takes these over the top!
I found the original recipe for these cookies on one of my favorite food blogs, The Smitten Kitchen, and I was entranced by the possibilities! She totally had me at toasty coconut and brown butter! One of my goals with this blog is to try to find ways to make recipes a bit healthier when I can so, I began experimenting with some different gluten free options like almond flour and my all time favorite sweetener, coconut sugar.
To say they worked well is an understatement–they worked fantastically well! The cookies come out much darker than the original version (because of the coconut sugar, which is dark) but tender, crunchy, deeply coconut-y with the the warmth of the brown butter in every crispy bite!
