Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour

- 0.75 cup Erythritol
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Molasses

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the unsalted butter and erythritol together until light and fluffy.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon, scoop small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place each ball onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Lightly press each ball to slightly flatten them into discs.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
