Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt.

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Serve and enjoy your low carb classic gingerbread.
