Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt.
In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
