Ingredients
2 Β½ cups whole grain flour for a fiber-rich base
2 teaspoons baking soda to help the cookies rise
ΒΌ teaspoon salt to enhance flavors and balance sweetness
1 Β½ teaspoons cinnamon (Ceylon variety) for a spicy warmth
Β½ teaspoon nutmeg powder adds depth and a nutty note
ΒΎ cup softened coconut oil (not melted) provides healthy fats and moisture
ΒΎ cup coconut sugar a natural sweetener for added texture
1 egg acts as a binder for the dough
ΒΌ cup raw honey the star sweetener with antioxidants
Β½ teaspoon vanilla extract for a subtle, flavorful boost
Instructions
1-In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole grain flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside to ensure the dry ingredients mix evenly.
2-In another bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened coconut oil and coconut sugar for a few minutes until well combined. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and raw honey, then beat until fully mixed for a smooth batter.
3-Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until everything is fully combined into a uniform dough.
4-Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 30 to 60 minutes, or until it is completely chilled, which helps with texture and shape.
5-Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy baking and cleanup.
6-Roll the chilled dough into balls about the size of a walnut, placing them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
7-Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the cookies are just right, then allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 1 minute before transferring to wire racks.
