Homemade Snickerdoodles
Soft, cinnamon-warmed snickerdoodles made with white kamut flour and a few better-for-you swaps.
Ingredients
Method
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the water, both sugars, and the salt. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then set aside to cool.
- In a ceramic bowl, combine the butter, coconut oil, vanilla, and lemon juice.
- In a large ceramic bowl, combine the kamut flour, arrowroot, cream of tartar, cinnamon, bittermelon, and baking soda.
- Add the gelatin and psyllium husks to the cooled sugar water. Stir until it thickens, then add to the butter mixture.
- Add the slightly beaten eggs to the butter mixture and mix.
- Mix in the flour.
- Scoop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 375°F for about .
Notes
- Snickerdoodles are traditionally rolled in cinnamon sugar before baking; this version bakes the cinnamon right into the dough.
