How to Make Gluten Dairy Free Molasses Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, ½ cup molasses, ½ cup dairy-free butter (melted), 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Then beat on high speed for 2 minutes.
  5. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  6. Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with granulated sugar.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Start checking at 12 minutes.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Enjoy your delicious and allergy-friendly fall cookies!
