Prep Time 1 hour hour

Cook Time 10 minutes minutes

Total Time 1 hour hour 10 minutes minutes

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups almond meal
• 2 tbsp coconut flour
• 2 tsp ground ginger powder
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp all spice
• 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
• 3 tbsp maple syrup*
• Organic dried fruit to decorate

Instructions

• In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients. 
• Add melted coconut oil and maple syrup and combine well. 
• Transfer dough to a flat surface lined with baking paper, shape and cover with another piece of baking paper. Using a rolling pin roll out to 1/2 cm thick. 
• Transfer to refrigerator for 1 hour or until firm (this helps cut shapes with a cookie cutter). 
• Pre-heat oven to 170C. 
• Using a cookie cutter cut shapes into the dough and gently pop out the cookie shape onto a lined baking tray. Repeat until all dough is used up. (Return flattened dough to refrigerator if needed to cut easily into shapes). 
• Decorate with organic dried fruit, (I used dried cranberries, goji berries and currants) gently pushing into the dough. 
• Bake in oven for 10 minutes or until golden. 
• Allow to cool.
