Spritz cookies


From Amber Lee

The website calls for a 6:2:1 ratio of rice:potato:tapioca. I used arrowroot in place of potato, or subbed tap. for pot. and used arrowroot for tap. or something like that and they were fine. I think it affected the taste - arrowroot is not my favorite flour - it really has an anise-y taste to me. But they turned out and the kids ate them!!

2/3 cup sugar
1 cup margarine (I used Earth Balance)
1 egg (I used egg replacer w/o oil)
2 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 cups gluten-free flour blend*
1/2 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt

Preheat to 400. Beat sugar & butter substitute. Add egg or egg substitute and vanilla and beat well. In a separate bowl, mix flour mixture, xanthan gum and salt. Add the sugar to the mixture. Beat on low until dough is well mixed. Press cookies onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake 6-8 minutes until edges are browned.
