Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.25 cups Coconut flour
• 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cups Granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Blackstrap molasses (optional, for deeper flavor)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated erythritol until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).

Step 4

Add the egg, vanilla extract, and optional blackstrap molasses to the butter mixture, and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until the dough comes together and is well combined.

Step 6

Using your hands or a small cookie scoop, form the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Gently flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass or your palm to form a cookie shape.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy the crispy, low-carb gingersnaps with a cozy cup of tea or coffee. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
