My own recipe - and my first gluten-free creation. I love them! You might want to add more sugar - I don't like things too sweet. I also use more spices. Ingredients:
1/2 cup vegan margarine |
1/3 cup sugar (i use sucanat) |
1/2 cup molasses |
1 egg |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
1 cup amaranth flour |
1 cup tapioca starch |
1 cup cornstarch |
1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon ginger |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon clove |
Directions:
1. combine dry ingredients; mix in with wet ingredients.
2. wrap loosely in plastic wrap and chill in fridge for about 3 hours.
3. grease cookie sheet, and on a lightly floured surface, roll dough (easier done in sections) to desired thickness.
4. if you like then crunchier, then roll them thinner, and if you like them doughier, then thicker.
5. cut into desired shapes.
6. bake at 375F until starting to brown.
7. (takes about 10 minutes for thicker cookies).
8. decorated with Skittles, raisins, and icing.
9. Icing: icing sugar + softened spread + dash of soy milk.
