Ingredients

1 cup almond butter
1 tablespoon molasses
1 large egg room temperature
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon all spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Coarse sea salt for sprinkling on tops of cookies

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and prepare baking sheets with an all natural cooking spray or parchment paper.
Beat almond butter, molasses, egg and sugar together.
Add other ingredients to the almond butter mixture and cream all ingredients together.
Drop rounded teaspoons of cookie batter 2-inches onto the baking sheet. Use the back of a fork to gently press cookie ball down in a criss-cross pattern. (spray fork with cooking spray to keep it from sticking, if needed)
Bake for about 8 minutes. After taking cookies out of the oven, sprinkle cookies with course sea salt and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes before moving them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

Notes

Cookies are perfect for making ahead of the busy holiday season because they freeze so well. Let cool completely on a wire rack before transferring to an air-tight container to freeze.
