I have the best memories of making whole-wheat sugar cookies with Grandma before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. I loved to eat the dough; so yummy! Last year I made some almond flour sugar cookies that were so delicious. This year though, I know that so many people can’t eat nuts, eggs, or seeds. Everybody deserves a sugar cookie cutout at Christmas time – so here is the recipe!
You’d never know that these are free of eggs, grains, nuts, and seeds. They are a little bit crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, like a good sugar cookie should be.
These didn’t last long in our house, and they won’t in yours either!
Have a wonderful Christmas!
