Ingredients
•
1 1/3 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
•
1 teaspoon baking powder
•
1/4 teaspoon salt
•
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
•
1/2 cup butter at room temperature
•
1 cup sugar, divided
•
1 egg
•
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl.
3
Whisk butter and 3/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer in a separate bowl until soft and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add egg; whisk until well combined. Add flour mixture gradually; whisk on low speed until a soft dough is formed, about 2 minutes. Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls.
4
Combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar with cinnamon in a bowl. Roll balls in cinnamon mixture and place on the prepared baking sheets.
5
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
