Ingredients

• 120 g soybean flour
• 80 g all-purpose flour
• 100 g brown sugar
• 100 g unsalted butter
• 1 large egg
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp ground ginger
• 0.5 tsp ground cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 0.25 tsp salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soybean flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cayenne pepper, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, cream the unsalted butter and brown sugar together using a hand mixer or wooden spoon until light and fluffy.

Step 4

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, scoop out portions of the dough and roll them into small balls. Place them on the prepared baking tray, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a fork or your fingertips.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve the cookies once cooled, and store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
