Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup cane sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (3-5 minutes)

02

Step

Beat in the egg until well combined, then stir in the blackstrap molasses and vanilla extract. (1-2 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, coconut flour, grated fresh ginger, ground ginger, baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, and ground cloves. (1 minute)

04

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (2-3 minutes)

05

Step

Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight. The dough will be quite soft before chilling. (1 hour to overnight)

06

Step

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

07

Step

In a shallow dish, combine the remaining 1/4 cup cane sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg for coating.

08

Step

Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the chilled dough and roll them into balls.

09

Step

Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Place the coated balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie for spreading.

10

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. (10-12 minutes)

11

Step

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

12

Step

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

For a deeper molasses flavor, use dark molasses.
Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too thin.
Grated orange zest (about 1 teaspoon) would be a delicious addition.
For extra flair, use turbinado sugar or sanding sugar for coating
