Gluten Free & Vegan Gingerbread Rollout Cookies

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.

They are free of the following common allergens: gluten, wheat, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, dairy, and eggs
