Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl stir together the almond flour, cornstarch, ginger, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the maple syrup, molasses, and melted coconut oil, and stir until a sticky dough is formed.
- If you want to make cut-out gingerbread cookies, wrap the dough in saran wrap and place it in the freezer for 30 minutes or fridge for 2 hours.
- If you want to make drop cookies, scoop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheet, press down gently, and bake.
- Once the dough has been chilled, place it in the center of a large piece of parchment paper with another piece of parchment paper on top.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a flat layer, no less than 1/4 inch thick. Use whatever cookie-cutter shape desired and press down firmly.
- Pull away the excess dough and carefully place on the prepared cookie sheet. Re-roll the dough to create more shapes. Depending on the size of the cutter you use, you should end up with approximately 12 or so cookies.
- Bake at 350ºF for 8-10 minutes for cookies with a soft center, or 12-14 minutes for crisp/hard cookie.
- Allow them to cool completely on the pan before icing and serving. Enjoy!
- Store leftover cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or frozen for up to 6 months.
