“My step daughter has a nut allergy so when we started making cookies for the holiday season I swapped out my usual snowball recipe with this one”
**Ingredients Highlights**
* All-purpose flour and oat flour blend
* Unsalted butter, softened
* Powdered sugar (for mixing and dusting)
* Vanilla extract
* A pinch of salt
**Simple Steps**
1. Cream the butter with powdered sugar until fluffy.
2. Stir in vanilla extract.
3. Gradually mix in the flour blend and salt until a soft dough forms.
4. Shape into small balls and bake until lightly golden.
5. Once cooled, generously dust with powdered sugar.
**Why This Recipe Works**
By swapping nuts for oat flour, the cookies keep their classic crumbly texture without sacrificing flavor. The oat flour adds a subtle, comforting note that complements the buttery base beautifully. Plus, it’s a crowd-pleaser that fits seamlessly into any holiday cookie platter.
**Final Thoughts**
Making this nut-free snowball cookie was more than just a recipe swap—it was about inclusivity and care. Seeing my stepdaughter enjoy cookies alongside the rest of us, without any fear of allergic reactions, made this holiday baking extra special.
If you or someone you love has a nut allergy, give this recipe a try. It’s a sweet reminder that with a little creativity, holiday traditions can be adapted to bring everyone to the table.
