Snickerdoodles are a fairly simple chewy cookie that is rolled in cinnamon and sugar prior to baking. I was inspired to create a Paleo version of these cookies after my girls gobbled up a box of Trader Joe’s gluten-free, vegan Snickerdoodles. This recipe is every bit as tasty and has more nutritive value, plus it’s way cheaper to make your own!
Store any leftovers in a plastic tub in the fridge (if you have any leftovers! My husband and kids LOVE these!). Makes about 20 cookies.
