Ingredients

  • 1 flax egg
  • 326 grams (or 2 1/3 cup) whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp cardamom
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 3/4 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/3 cup molasses

Instructions

  1. To make flax egg: Microwave 3 tablespoons of water for about 20 seconds. Add 1 tablespoon of flax seed and let sit for 10 minutes.

  2. Sift together flour, baking soda, salt and spices.

  3. Using a mixer on medium to high, cream together almond butter and sugar.

  4. Add flax egg, molasses, and almond milk to almond butter and sugar mixture.

  5. Mixing in a little bit in at a time, add flour mixture.

  6. Let chill for 1-2 hours or overnight. The longer the better as this dough is very sticky.

  7. Once chilled, preheat oven to 350° F. Add a layer of coconut oil or parchment paper to a cookie sheet. Form dough into balls and place on cookie sheet. If the dough has been chilled, you will need to press down on the cookies until they are at desired thickness.

  8. Cook for 20 minutes.
