Description
Tender and a little sandy textured, these cookies have the molasses-spice flavor of the traditional treat, but are Paleo-diet-friendly. They get their crisp exterior from a combination of arrowroot flour and coconut sugar. If you follow a no-dairy version of Paleo, substitute coconut oil for butter (either way, the cookies are great with a glass of almond milk). Depending on the brand of coconut sugar, the cookies may come out more cinnamon-colored or a darker brown. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Caroline Wright.

Directions
- Whisk together almond flour, arrowroot flour, coconut flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, salt, and cayenne in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Put butter, coconut sugar, and molasses in a medium bowl. Beat with a mixer on low speed to blend; then increase speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg until blended.
- Stir dry ingredients into molasses mixture until well blended. Scrape dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pat into a disk. Wrap dough and freeze until firm and very cold, about 1 hour.

absolutely delicious!!!! I didn't have almond flour so used almond meal, used 2.5 tsp ginger and 1 tsp cinnamon. ran out of coconut sugar when it came to the 3tbsp to cast balls of dough before cooking so I used Demerara sugar instead. great recipe with a few of my twirks.... thank very much for this recipe.
