Primal Snickerdoodle Cookies
September 25, 2020
Snickerdoodle cookies definitely top the list of all-time fave classic cookies. Sweet, spicy, buttery, and soft, they're great year-round but also fit beautifully on holiday cookie plates and alongside a chai latte or pumpkin spice latte when the days get shorter and the air gets crisp in the fall.
If you have a sweet tooth, you might be easily seduced by cookies—particularly homemade, fresh-out-of-the-oven cookies. This is the perfect cookie condition, in a state of barely cooked but not yet hardened by the room temperature air that cools it to a more crisp texture.
Our Primal Snickerdoodle Cookies strive to be that fusion of soft interior with a slight crunch when the teeth bite into them. They also incorporate our seasonal Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel for a festive way to support hair, skin, and nails.
5 keys to a tender cookie crumb:
- Use brown sugar (we used Swerve) because it has more moisture than white sugar
- Rest the cookie dough before baking. We stuck our dough in the freezer as a fast-track hack to cool things down more quickly.
- Bake cookies at a lower oven temperature. Many recipes suggest 350ºF, but we used 325ºF. Watch your cookies as they bake so you take them out at the optimal time (when they're still soft/not set in the middle)
- Remove the cookies from the warm oven just as they flatten to avoid overcooking
- Allow the cookies to cool completely and then put them in an airtight container right away.

These primal and Paleo-friendly snickerdoodle cookies are the perfect winter treat. Pair with a warm beverage for the ultimate cozy comfort experience.

Ingredients
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
5 Tablespoons Brown Sugar Swerve
1 cup almond flour
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 teaspoons full-fat coconut milk
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
-
1/3 cup + 1 1/2 teaspoon Primal Kitchen Snickerdoodle Collagen Fuel
Pinch of salt
2 Tablespoons granular monk fruit or Swerve
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Roll cookie dough balls in:
Directions
Cut cold butter into small chunks. Place the butter in a bowl and add in the Swerve and almond flour. Use the back of a fork or a food processor to work the butter into the sweetener.
Add coconut milk, baking soda, vanilla extract, salt, and Collagen Fuel, and mix with the fork.
Form dough into 8 balls. Roll in the cinnamon-sweetener mix.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment. Place the dough balls on the parchment-lined cookie sheet and put in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325ºF. Remove the cookie sheet from the freezer. Bake cookies on the middle rack for 10-12 minutes (until balls have just melted flat and haven't risen in the center).
Remove cookies from the oven. Allow to cool before removing from from the cookie sheet with a spatula. Enjoy!
Recipe Note
Want perfectly round cookies? While still hot, gently lift the parchment (with cookies on it). Take a glass or small bowl that is slightly larger than the cookies and gently swirl it around the cookies to bring the edges in tight and make perfect circles.
