Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and granulated sugar for the coating.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly puffy. Do not overbake.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the Snickerdoodles in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
