- In a separate bowl, sift together the flours, the cream of tartar, the baking soda and salt.
- Mix together the applesauce, the flax “eggs”, and the vanilla. Add this to the sugar and butter mixture and beat well.
- Now add the sifted dry ingredients into the large mixing bowl and mix until combined. Dough will be quite stiff.

- Place sugared cookie balls onto the parchment paper, leaving about two inches between cookies.

Recipe Notes
These cookies keep well in an airtight container. They are best the first day, as they have an extra crispness then, but they are great keepers. Add them to your holiday cookie tray!
