Do I Really Have to Chill the Dough?

Absolutely! Chilling the dough is essential. The cookies have the perfect texture when they have been chilled overnight. However, it is possible to bake these cookies after the dough as chilled as little as two hours.

Cookie dough is chilled to solidify the fat in the dough, which prevents the cookies from spreading too much. If you do not chill the dough, or place the dough on an already warm baking pan it will result in a thin cookie that has spread too much.

Tips for Making Gluten Free Snickerdoodle Cookies

• I do not recommend using another type of flour for this recipe. I’ve found the ratios of almond flour and coconut flour to be perfect for this recipe and can’t recommend anything else.
• You must chill the cookie dough, otherwise the keto sugar cookies will spread dramatically in the oven.
• The bake times listed are for cookies that have been scooped using a 1-inch scoop. If you make the cookies larger or smaller, the bake time will vary.
• Make sure you coat the cookies in the cinnamon sugar well. If you need to lightly press the coating onto the cookies.
