Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 0.75 cup coconut sugar
- 0.25 cup molasses
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and sea salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the melted coconut oil and coconut sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract to the coconut oil and sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula until a thick dough forms.
Scoop the dough using a tablespoon and roll it into balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Using the back of a spoon or your fingers, gently flatten each ball of dough slightly to form a cookie shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are firm around the edges.
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.
Enjoy your delicious paleo ginger molasses cookies with a hot cup of tea!
