There is something unexplainably comforting about nibbling on a cookie at Christmas time. As such, I like to think that (gluten free) cookies are a vital asset to the holiday season.

Christmas cookies, without a doubt, are a wonderful addition to curling up with a hot beverage, blanket, and a movie!

They also pair exceptionally well with a game night. This time of year, it’d be pretty much impossible for my family to play cards or Monopoly without a plate of Christmas cookies or treats on the table. Not happening!!

From lemon to double chocolate, I have rounded up a handful of gluten free cookie recipes that my family and friends have come to love during the holiday season.

Mini Cinnamon Pizzelles

Inspired by the candy, and Christmas in Southern Italy, these delightfully chewy lemon cookies are a lovely holiday addition.

Oatmeal + Coconut

A gluten free version of a very classic cookie recipe.

If you are in the Kelowna area, and do not have time to make gluten free cookies this season, I would suggest stopping by Jaide and Joel’s for a box of treats.

For other gluten free holiday treats, feel free to view my Chocolate + Candy Cane Bark and Peanut Butter + Honey Popcorn recipes.
