It’s time to get in one last cookie recipe in before it’s the new year and you swear off eating cookies for another 3 months! These cookies aren’t the worst thing for you- they are gluten free, grain free and use coconut sugar instead of refined sugar- but they are still a treat, so enjoy them! Are you ready to get baking?
I love when baking is extremely simple and this recipe is no exception. I used a combination of almond butter and cashew butter but I bet they would work using one or the other fully. They only take ten minutes to prepare and I didn’t even use a hand mixer or stand mixer (but you can if that’s your sorta thing).
The chai spices really feel like Christmas. Cardamom, cinnamon and ginger are some of my favourite spices to use throughout the winter because they are so warming. If you have a chai spice blend on hand you could use that instead as well. I have a great blend at the bottom of this recipe.
I hope you enjoy these cookies and that you get some rest and relaxation throughout the holiday season!
