Keto Ginger Molasses Cookies

Step 1

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

MIX THE WET INGREDIENTS: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the nut butter, softened coconut oil, molasses, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.

Step 3

STIR IN THE DRY INGREDIENTS: Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, salt and stir well until combined.

Step 4

CHILL DOUGH: If the dough seems too soft (this could result if you used melted coconut oil), you can cover the bowl and chill in the freezer for at least 15 minutes. I do not usually have to chill mine.

Step 5

PREHEAT OVEN: Meanwhile preheat oven to 350F and mix together the cinnamon sugar coating in a small bowl

Step 6

FORM INTO COOKIE DOUGH BALLS: Remove the chilled dough and roll into 1.5 Tablespoon-sized balls. Roll the balls in the cinnamon-sweetener topping. Place on baking sheet about 2.5 inches apart. Gently flatten and sprinkle extra cinnamon-sugar on top if desired.

Step 7

Bake for 9 minutes or until slightly brown. Do not overbake. The cookies will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Allow to cool for at least 25 minutes, otherwise they will fall apart.

Step 8

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days or in the freezer for 2 months.
