Ingredients

  • 6 Tbsp butter softened
  • 1/4 C maple syrup
  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • 1/2 C coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 2/3 C. blanched almond flour

Instructions

  • Combine the butter, maple syrup, egg, water and coconut sugar and blend until combined.
  • Slowly add the ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, almond flour and baking soda and stir just until combined. Do not over mix.
  • Cover the mixing bowl with a light layer of plastic wrap, and tuck the bowl in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F, and line a cookie sheet with parchment - remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and roll into balls (1 1/2 to 2 inches pr ball). Place them 3 inches apart on the parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Flatten each cookie with the bottom of a glass, and then pop in the oven for 9-10 minutes or until the edges start to turn brown.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 10-15 minutes - they will finish cooking slightly on the baking sheet. Remove and set on your baking rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
