Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Well everyone it's Sunday. Which means tomorrow it's back to work. Oh goody!

 I hope everyone has had a good weekend! Mine has been filled with a lot of homework but I did have time to fit in a bit of baking today. I hope you like these! I made these cookies a few times over the holidays and I am still not sick of them. That is a sign of a good cookie if you ask me.

Ingredients

• ▢ 2 1/2 cups almond flour
• ▢ 5 tablespoon butter or coconut oil to make it dairy free
• ▢ 1/3 cup honey
• ▢ 2 tablespoon organic gluten free vanilla
• ▢ 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• ▢ 2 teaspoon ground ginger
• ▢ 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• ▢ 1/8 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

• Place almond flour and butter in a glass bowl
• Microwave bowl for 1 minute on high to melt butter
• Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix well with a pastry blender
• Preheat oven to 300 F
• Form dough into balls approximately 1.5 inches in diameter and place on a cookie sheet
• Flatten balls with a fork (make a criss-cross pattern) (**tip: if you wet the fork the dough won't stick to it)
• Bake cookies for 15 minutes
• Turn oven down to 200 F and cook for an additional 12-16 minutes (this depends on your texture preference, the cookies will turn out softer if cooked for 12 minutes but will be more like ginger snaps if cooked for longer)
• Remove cookies from oven and cool for a few minutes before transferring to a plate or rack to cool completely.**

Notes

**DON'T let these cool completely on the cookie sheet or they will be VERY hard to remove - trust me I did that the first time I made these and it wasn't fun!
