Ingredients

The following ingredients have 18 Servings
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (melted and cool (can substitute the same amount of unsalted butter, melted and cooled for a traditional option))
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instruction

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat coconut oil, 1 cup sugar, baking soda and cream of tartar, scraping down the sides of the bowl, as needed.
  • Add egg and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
  • Add flour in gradually, scraping down the sides as needed. The dough will be sticky and you might need to stir in the remaining flour.
  • Cover the dough and refrigerate for 1 hour or less, until it's easier to handle. While the dough is chilling, combine the 2 tablespoons of sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Take out the dough and allow to get to room temperature. You can use a fork to break up dough, if it's too hard. Form 1 inch balls, roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat evenly. Space about 2 inches apart on an un-greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 10-11 minutes or until the edges are golden. Allow to cool on a wire rack. Makes 36 cookies. Enjoy!
