    Coconut Flour Shortbread Cookies

    Ingredients 1/4 cup coconut flour 1/4 cup Gluten-Free Flour 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) soft unsalted butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 large egg 1/8 teaspoon coconut flavour, optional; for stronger flavour

    Preheat the oven to 400F. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Mix all the ingredients, by hand or mixer, until well-blended, cohesive dough forms; this will take about 2 minutes at medium-low speed in a stand mixer. Drop the cookie dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 1" between them; these cookies won't spread much when they bake. Use a fork to flatten each cookie to about 1/4" thick, making a cross-hatch design. Bake the cookies for 8 to 12 minutes, until just browned on the bottom. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet. This makes 22 cookies.
