Gingersnaps

Gingersnaps

*makes about 48 two-inch cookies

~Preheat oven to 375 degrees~

2 Cups Mama’s All Purpose Almond Flour

1/4 Cup White Rice Flour (you could probably use brown)

1 Cup Dark Brown Sugar, packed

1/2 Cup + 2 Tablespoons Organic Coconut Oil, solid

1/4 Cup Molasses

1 Egg

1 teaspoon Baking Soda

1/2 teaspoon Xanthan Gum

2 teaspoons Freshly Grated Ginger Root

1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

3/4 teaspoon Ground Cloves

Raw Sugar

In a mixer combine about half the flour, the brown sugar, coconut oil, molasses, egg, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. Beat on medium to high-speed scraping down sides once or twice until thoroughly combined. Beat in remaining flour.

Shape dough into about 1 inch balls. Place on parchment covered baking sheets. With a fork, lightly squish down the balls. No need to criss cross, as the fork imprints bake out. Sprinkle with raw sugar.

Bake for 7 minutes (I use convection), remove to cooling racks and sprinkle with more raw sugar.

  1. Oh, these look amazing! I have a friend who is completely addicted to all things ginger – so these cookies immediately made me think of her. And when I’m at baking school next year – learning about all things gluten free – I’ll be thinking of you…

    • They teach you about gluten-free baking? That’s wonderful, I didn’t know that!I love ginger too. It’s mainly the only reason I eat sushi…for the ginger on the side. Ha! 🙂

  3. Great new look, April! It seems to be loading faster, too — although that just might be my (*$&^%^!) DSL service. I’ll be sending this recipe to my cousin. I’m sure she’s going to love it! Thanks for sharing.

    • You’re welcome! They are a cinch to make. I’m glad to hear it’s loading faster. I have that problem with certain pages too and I’m not sure why. We have digital internet which is supposed to be the fastest out there, but there are still glitches sometimes. 🙂
