Comments on: Gluten-Free Shortbread http://www.celiacteen.com/2010/gluten-free-shortbread/ Let go of the Gluten Sat, 27 Apr 2013 13:35:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5 By: Dia http://www.celiacteen.com/2010/gluten-free-shortbread/comment-page-1/#comment-1741 Dia Thu, 02 Dec 2010 17:37:00 +0000 http://www.kineticwebs-wp1.com/?p=226#comment-1741 Yum! Looking for the ‘perfect’ cookie to take to our Gluten Free Friends Cookie exchange this weekend … these look delightful!
I often add 1/4 C coconut flour in a recipe that calls for ~ 2 C flour total – it is high in soluble fibre, so you need to add a bit more moisture. I would use about 2 T in this recipe, substituting it for part another flour.
Carob powder is another binder, & nice in recipes that call for chocolate (either in addition or on its own), as it will make the final product darker. It is also sweet, so you can reduce sugar in a recipe containing Carob (which is ground from a seed from the legume family, so naturally gluten free).

No, I don’t use a cookie scoop, though I’m sure you could if you wished. Just a spoon and my hands, eyeballing it.

Sorry if I missed it in your post, did you use a cookie scoop? If so, what size scoop makes 1 inch balls?

Do you think coconut flour would work as a substitute for all the flours? And I can't have cornstarch or xantham gum. Do you know of any substitutes for these?

Thanks!

I just love shortbread. I'm thinking I can sub my rice flour mix for the total of sorghum and cornstarch (as it already contains cornstarch). I'll let you know, but I need my own stack of those cookies. ;-)

Thanks for the recipe. I'll be sure to try it and let you know how it turns out!
