Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, combine the melted coconut oil and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the vanilla extract and almond milk until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookies are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Once cooled, dust the cookies lightly with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness.
