Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  2. Combine almond meal, coconut sugar, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, baking power, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl, mix with a fork to break up any clumps.

  3. Combine coconut oil, molasses, maple syrup, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl, mix lightly with a fork just until blended.

  4. Make a well in the center of the almond meal mixture and pour in coconut oil mixture. Fold with a baking spatula until dough is blended and gooey.

  5. Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are firm to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle a little bit of sea salt over each cookie. Cool on the baking sheet for 2 to 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
