Equipment

Ingredients

3 cups All Purpose Flour
1 ½ teaspoon Cinnamon Plus 1 Tablespoon
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
½ teaspoon Salt
1 cup Butter Room Temperature
1 cup Sugar Plus ¼ cup for topping
2 large Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla
¾ cup Vanilla Kefir Lifeway

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set that aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar for 2 minutes on medium speed.
Add the eggs, vanilla, and kefir to the stand mixer and mix well.
Add the dry ingredients to the stand mixer and mix for 1 minute until well combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, mix together ¼ cup of sugar with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
With an ice cream scoop, scoop out a portion of the dough and roll it into the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Place the dough ball on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake the cookies for 12 minutes until just slightly browned.
Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Instead of vanilla kefir, original flavor or pumpkin spice can be substituted.
The cookies are done when they are just slightly browned and they have spread.
Make sure to leave room between each cookie as they do tend to spread a lot.
