Easy and good taste.

Hi! I am on a fodmap diet for an uncooperative digestive system. I can’t eat coconut sugar. Can I switch it to brown sugar? Thank you. I love your almond flour recipes!

Best ginger cookies ever! Everyone loves them. I make these instead of any other flour-based recipe. Thanks for a great tasting cookie!

Because I’m on the AIP diet, I couldn’t use an egg. I’d seen a flaxseed egg doesn’t work for your recipe. I had tried a different paleo ginger snap recipe that used 3 Tablespoons of almond butter to replace the egg to make it vegan, so I thought I’d try it with your recipe.

The batter was more dry, but I think it worked relatively well. A bit more crumbly than what your recipe might produce, but they baked up beautifully and great alternative for those of us who can’t use egg!!

In reply to Dianne Reed. Hi Dianne, I am thrilled to hear that you like this recipe. I agree with you on that taking the time to refrigerate the dough is an important step. Thanks for coming by, sharing your experience, and taking the time to leave a review.

Wonderful recipe! I’ve made these several times now, and refrigerating the batter really does make a difference. I think the refrigeration step makes the cookies marzipan-like in texture, while skipping it makes for bigger, fluffier cookies. Also good, but the denser ones are even better. I substituted calorie free brown sugar (Swerve), so the calorie count came to about 160 per cookie.

These are absolutely fantastic! Super easy to make and they bake up nicely. Such a tender cookie with amazing flavor. I added some more ginger, just because I really love the ginger flavor. Highly recommend! Definitely going to have this recipe on rotation. Thanks for a wonderful gluten free and dairy free treat!

In reply to Ala. Hi Ala, These cookies are best for the first 2-3 days. I recommend making a batch and freezing them when they are raw. Before you head to your cookie exchange party, you can pop them in the oven. It doesn't take too long to bake (and cool). That way, they'd be super fresh and delicious. Hope this helps.

By: Ala

Ala — Thu, 08 Dec 2022 20:28:04 +0000

How long can these cookies keep fresh? I’d like to make them for a cookie exchange but I am not sure how far in advance I can bake them.

In reply to Christina. Good to know that this gingerbread cookie recipe worked well with monk fruit sweetener. Thanks for sharing your experience Christina.

Excellent, substituted maple syrup for molasses, increased the ginger and cinnamon, caookies came out perfect: chewy-crispy, golden brown, tons of flavor. Thank you for a great recipe.

These gingerbread cookies are wonderful and fun to make! I cut the coconut sugar by maybe 2 T. but only because I like things less sweet. Thank you for these easy delicious cookies, I can’t wait to try more recipes!

By: Aysegul Sanford

Aysegul Sanford — Mon, 03 Oct 2022 02:29:28 +0000

In reply to Cecilie. Hi Cecilie, Sadly, I do not think that those substitutions would be ideal for getting the gingerbread flavors. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend substituting them. Hope this helps.

Cecilie — Sun, 02 Oct 2022 09:27:43 +0000

Do you think it would work to swap coconut sugar and molasses for honey?

In reply to Nan. Hi Nan, I love the idea of doubling the ginger. And thanks for letting us know that this gingerbread cookie recipe works with Splenda as well. I am happy to hear that you liked it. Cheers!

I just made these this morning and they are delicious! I didn’t have coconut
sugar so used Splenda. Also doubled the ginger. Fantastic taste. Thanks!

In reply to Audra. Hi Audra, I have never tried making these paleo gingerbread cookies smaller but I do not think it will be an issue. I would keep a close eye on that around the 9th minute mark to ensure that they don't burn. It is okay to have a bit of browning on the edges but you wouldn't want them to be too hard. Hope this helps. Aysegul

By: Audra

Audra — Thu, 09 Jun 2022 19:27:08 +0000

Can I make these smaller to get double the amount? If so, should the baking time be changed? Thanks in advance…

A delicious cookie, impossible to stop at one as they are ever so moreish! I used almond meal, and golden syrup instead of molasses.

In reply to Sarah. Oh that made laugh! We have the same issue at our house. That is why I make these gingerbread cookies only during the holiday season. Thanks for coming by and taking the time to leave a review Sarah.

Absolutely delicious!! I’ve made these several times already. The only problem is I keep eating too many in one sitting! My non-gf family loves them too. 10/10!

You will not regret making these! The texture and chewiness when they come out of the oven is an absolute dream. I crave these on a daily basis! Thank you for this amazing recipe, Ice!

In reply to Helena. Hi Helena, Sadly, this gingerbread cookie recipe wouldn't work with flax eggs. Eggs provide body and structure to almond flour recipes so I wouldn't recommend making it without eggs. However, I have an almond flour cookie recipe you can make that has no eggs in it. You can incorporate some of the gingerbread spices into that basic recipe to achieve a similar flavor profile. I hope this helps.

By: Helena

Helena — Sun, 23 Jan 2022 23:57:03 +0000

These look amazing. Do you know if these would work with a flax egg. I am intolerant to eggs. Thought I’d ask before attempting them in case it’s a no go!
Thanks for sharing your recipes.

My husband just made these subbing monk fruit for the coconut sugar. They tasted exactly as you described even down to the chewiness. I came here to bookmark the recipe. So good!! Thank you!

In reply to Ruth. Himmmmm.. That sounds like a dream. YUM!

So, If you want to make them for Xmas…melt white choc. chips, and dip one side and then sprinkle with red and green sprinkles…they look so festive..This may add a little more sugar…I am ok with that.

In reply to KB. I usually use Grandma's Molasses - the unsulphured kind. I hope this helps.

Hello. There are 2 types of molasses and bake differently, which one did you use?

In reply to Leesa Kana. Hi Leesa, To be honest, I have never tried it with stevia but I doubt that it would work. I am sorry that I am no help but I personally am not a fan of the taste of stevia so I have not tried this recipe with it.

By: Leesa Kana

Leesa Kana — Sat, 23 Oct 2021 20:01:36 +0000

Can I use stevia instead of coconut sugar ?
