Tools: scale, mixer, 2 bowls, Rolling Pin, baking mat, cookie cutters
Oven Temperature: 350 degrees F
Weight: by grams
In your mixing bowl mix:
40 Flax seed Meal
100 Lukewarm Water
Let sit for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Whisk Dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside:
350 Brown Rice Flour
60 Tapioca Starch
50 Coconut Flour
40 Potato Starch
15 Ground Ginger
10 Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Ground Cloves (this amount doesn't register on my scale)
5 Salt
5 Xanthan Gum
5 Baking Soda
In your mixing bowl, mix together the following ingredients with the flax seed meal and water until they are all evenly combined:
450 White Sugar
50 Molasses
150 Coconut Oil or Shortening
50 Unsweetened Apple Sauce
Add the dry mix to the mixing bowl and mix for 3-5 minutes on medium speed.
Rollout on a silicon mat to 3/4" in thick, if you will be pressing a pattern into them like the ones I have pictured. Do 1/2" if you are not doing a pressed pattern on top. Dust with brown rice flour as needed. Do the fun part of cutting out cookies! Then place them on you cookie sheet that has been covered my parchment paper or a silicon baking mat. Thinner cookies will make harder cookies, so if you are making houses, you can do that, or just bake longer.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 18-20 minutes.
When they come out let them cool for a few minutes before you transfer them to the cooling rack.
When they have cooled put them in an air tight container.
