VANILLA GINGERBREAD COOKIES

These easy keto friendly gingerbread cookies are perfectly crisp, chewy, and takes only 15 minutes to bake!

Made with simple ingredients that are minimally processed and cleaner than the commercial store bought cookie.

All you need is a food processor to blend all the ingredients! Bonus these cookies have less than 3 grams net carbs.

INGREDIENTS

2 Cups almond flour

1 Tsp gluten-free baking powder

1/2 Cup Monk fruit sugar @lakanto

2 Tsp Gingerbread spice

1 Serving Nuzest Clean Lean Vanilla Protein (1 Serv = 2 Scoops)

1 Packet of @cocobynuco power crunch

1/2 Cup coconut oil

1 Tsp vanilla extract

1/2 Tsp cinnamon

1 Tbsp pure ginger juice **optional for those who want extra ginger

1 Tbsp flaxseed meal

1/3 Cup nut milk (only if mixture is too dry)

INSTRUCTIONS

Add all your ingredients to the food processor and blend until a dough consistency. Roll into a ball. Cover the ball of dough completely in plastic wrap. Press down on it, allowing to refrigerate for 45 minutes before baking.

After 45min, start to preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Or use a non stick baking sheet @whiltshire

Using a rolling pin @wiltshireau flatten out the dough and start pressing out your gingerbread men.

Bake for 12-15min.

Then decorate once cooled.

I just used dark chocolate as the “frosting” with some dried berries.
