Gluten-Free Organic Sugar Cookies: A Better-for-You Treat

Baked Goods, Recipes

Life isn’t about being perfect. It’s about balance, enjoying the little moments, and making choices that align with your values without feeling deprived. That’s why I created these Gluten-Free Organic Sugar Cookies—a sweet treat made with high-quality, pure ingredients that let you indulge without compromise.

Yes, these cookies still have sugar. Yes, they are still dessert. But what makes them different? They are free from hydrogenated oils, artificial preservatives, and unpronounceable chemicals—just simple, real ingredients in their purest form.

What Makes These Cookies Better?

Instead of the usual overly processed ingredients, this recipe is made with:

  • Vanilla Extract – Real, pure vanilla extract for that classic, comforting flavor.
  • Organic Baking Soda – Free from unnecessary additives.
  • Pasture-Raised Eggs – A nutrient-dense option that supports better farming practices.
  • Grass-Fed Butter – Rich in healthy fats and omega-3s.
  • Organic Powdered Sugar – Free from GMOs and artificial anti-caking agents.
  • Gluten-Free Flour Blend – A carefully chosen mix of organic sprouted brown rice flour, sorghum flour, potato starch, and tapioca flour to create the perfect texture.
  • Organic Frosting – A bakery-style taste featuring organic coconut oil, sea salt, vanilla, powdered sugar, palm fruit, and tapioca.
  • Natural Food Coloring (optional) – Made from food powders like spirulina, turmeric, and beet root powder, instead of artificial dyes that can be toxic to the body.

Again, it’s not about being perfect, but about making a better alternative to highly processed baked goods filled with chemical ingredients that are unrecognizable by the body.

Cook Time:8 minutes
Servings: 30 Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1.5 Cups Organic Powdered Sugar
  • 1 Cup Grass-Fed Butter
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Egg
  • 2.5 Cups Organic Gluten-Free Flour (Recipe Coming Soon)
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • Miss Jones Baking Co. Organic Vanilla Frosting

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray your baking sheet or stone with Avocado Oil
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and powdered sugar until creamy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour and baking soda.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and cut into desired shapes. I found that it was easier to work with right away. If the dough is too soft you could refrigerate for a few minutes, but I found letting it sit in the fridge for a long time like with a traditional sugar cookie recipe made the dough too crumbly.
  • Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
  • Let cool completely before frosting with your favorite organic frosting.
