Top Tips for Making Vegan Gluten Free Cookies with Sorghum Flour

1. Make it Sugar-Free

   This sorghum flour cookies recipe can easily be made sugar-free by replacing the maple syrup with a sugar-free syrup, and replacing regular chocolate chips with sugar-free chocolate chips.

2. Store It

   These cookies keep well at room temperature for up to 24 hours, or refrigerated in airtight containers for up to 3 days.

Common Recipe Questions

1. Can I replace the maple syrup with another sweetener?

   Yes. Raw honey, agave syrup, coconut nectar or a sugar-free syrup will work well in this recipe.

2. Can I replace sorghum flour with another flour?

   Because I created this recipe with sorghum flour in mind and have not tested it with any others, I do not recommend it. But, if you do try something else, I would love to hear about it!
