Looking for more gingerbread treats? Try these dairy-free gingerbread truffles. I’ve always been the worst at decorating those, so I much prefer these! It’s so easy to dip them, and everyone loves them when I bring them to holiday parties or include on cookie trays. I know many like to make gingerbread men cookies for Christmas. I know Pascha makes a dairy-free white chocolate chip too, but those aren’t available anywhere near me so I haven’t tested melting them and a friend said they do not melt well. They didn’t dip picture perfect, but are otherwise a very good choice. Again, I’ve tested both ways and they work well here.įor the white chocolate, if you want dairy-free, I tested these this week using the new Nestle Simply Delicious White Chocolate Chips that I picked up at Walmart. You can use Crisco or Spectrum Organic all-vegetable shortening. Yes! The cookies can be made with all shortening instead of butter and I’ve made them that way many times. Can you make these gluten-free gingersnaps dairy-free? When the cookies have cooled, you’ll dip in the melted white chocolate and then I recommend laying them on wax paper while the chocolate sets. You’ll bake the cookies on parchment paper. I highly recommend that you have both parchment paper and wax paper on hand for making these. I don’t recommend using Guittard white chips as they just don’t melt smoothly.

White Chocolate: The best I’ve found for melting for dipping is Baker’s White Chocolate Squares (you’ll use 3 boxes), and Trader Joe’s white chocolate chips (linked here so you can see what they look like – you’d need 1 full bag plus part of another).

These are all ground spices you can buy on the spice aisle at your store.

Spices: Gingersnaps are supposed to be flavorful, so you’ll see these have good amounts of ginger, cloves.

Molasses: I usually buy Grandma’s Unsulphured Molasses but feel free to grab the kind at your neighborhood store.gfJules and King Arthur already have xanthan gum so you wouldn’t need to add additional. Xanthan Gum: If the gluten-free flour blend you use already has xanthan gum or guar gum in it, then omit the xanthan gum called for in this recipe.So try it with your favorite blend or order one of these. This week I tested with King Arthur Measure for Measure blend and they look great but are just barely a little gritty in comparison to when I’ve used the other blends. Gluten Free Mama’s All-purpose Almond Blend Flour worked well, though the cookies spread a little thinner than when I use gfJules. gfJules flour blend works very well in these and is my go-to for making these. Gluten-free Flour: I’ve had success with all good quality gluten-free flour blends I’ve tried.You can do a mix of butter and shortening too. All butter results in great flavor but a flatter cookie (like the ones pictured), all shortening yields a puffier cookie. Butter or Shortening: You can use all butter or all shortening in these cookies.Notes on Ingredients for these gluten-free gingersnaps: I made the gluten-filled version for years and happily get the same results in this gluten-free version by using a good quality gluten-free flour blend. This became a must-make recipe in my house every Christmas. I was hooked on them right away and she kindly mailed me the recipe soon after. I never liked gingersnaps or spice cookies until my friend’s mother served these cookies to my husband and me many years ago. December just calls for cookies like this! These are chewy cookies that have just the right amount of spice, complemented by the smooth white chocolate. These gluten-free gingersnaps aren’t the strong-flavored, very crisp gingersnaps you might have tried before. I’ve updated this blog post with more tips and recommendations, but the recipe is still the same way I’ve made it for all these years. Gluten-free Gingersnaps dipped in white chocolate are a favorite December treat! Our gluten-free Christmas cookie plates wouldn’t be complete without these gluten-free ginger snap cookies each year! This was the very first recipe I shared on my blog when I started it in 2012! It holds a special place in my heart and I still make these gluten-free Christmas treats and enjoy them every year.
