Think eggnog, cinnamon rolls, and spice heaven, and you're halfway there to
the flavor of these guys!

This recipe is one of that was born because I was bored in the kitchen one day,
and was really craving allll the spices--nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, and
cloves, etc! Then these perfectly sweet, soft, and chewy cookies were born!

A serving suggestion that tastes AMAZING is to scoop your favorite dairy-free
and sugarless coconut milk ice cream in between these babies! Too delish!
The Perfect Paleo Spice Cookies
- Yields 12-16 cookies -
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
2 Tbsp coconut flour
1/4 tsp pink salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp nutmeg
a pinch of both ground allspice and ground cloves
2 pasture-raised eggs
1/2 cup grass-fed butter, softened
1/2 cup coconut sugar
2 Tbsp raw honey, or pure maple syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
SPICE MIXTURE:
About 1/8 cup more of coconut sugar
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp nutmeg
a pinch of both ground allspice and ground cloves
INSTRUCTIONS:
In a large bowl, with an electric hand mixer, cream butter and coconut sugar together until fluffy and lighter in color, about 1-2 minutes.
Once fluffy, beat in maple syrup until combined. Then add in eggs, one at a time, and beat well. Lastly, add in vanilla, and beat to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together your dry ingredients. Once mixed, sift your dry ingredients into your larger bowl of wet, and mix (on low speed at first!) until a dough forms.
Chill dough in fridge for a few hours. (Overnight is best!)
Once dough is chilled and stiff, preheat oven to 350°F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a rubber baking mat.
Take heaping tablespoon pieces of dough, roll them in to a ball, and generously roll/coat in the sugar-spice mixture, and place onto your mat. Then, press them down to flatten just a bit, and bake in your oven for 13 minutes.
Once done, sprinkle with a bit more of the spice mixture, and let them cool for a few minutes on the pan. Transfer to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!
