Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups super-fine blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 3 tbsp unsulphured blackstrap molasses
  • 1/3 cup solid coconut oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the coconut oil, coconut sugar, molasses, egg, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth, about 1 minute.
  2. Stir in the almond flour, coconut flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt until a cohesive dough forms.
  3. Roll the dough between parchment paper to 1/4 inch thick, cut shapes, and place on lined baking sheets.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes, then cool on a rack before serving.

Notes

If your dough feels sticky while rolling, chill it for 15 minutes before cutting. The cookies soften slightly as they sit, so they’re perfect for making a day in advance.
