Ingredients

for -8+ servings:

Cookies

  • 1 1/3 cup of gluten-free flour
  • 1 tsp of baking powder
  • 2 tsp of gingerbread spice
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup of Yumbutter Superfood Almond Butter
  • 1/2 cup of blackstrap molasses
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract
  • Frosting

  • 1/3 cup of warmed coconut butter
  • 1 tsp of maple syrup
  • Instructions

    Preheat oven to 325F.

    Whisk together molasses, almond butter, and vanilla in a large bowl.

    Sift in flour, baking powder and gingerbread spice and use a spatula to mix. Mix until a dough forms. It should be moist, not too sticky, and easily rollable.

    Roll out between 2 sheets of parchment paper until dough is 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutter to create shapes and place each cookie on a greased baking sheet.

    Bake for 8-10 minutes. Let cool completely before transferring frosting to a ziplock bag, cutting the corner, and piping on the designs. Decorate as you please and enjoy!
