Ingredients
Gather the following ingredients to whip up these delightful cookies:

- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- Optional: powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your batch of delicious gingerbread cookies:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set it aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, brown sugar, molasses, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a bit more flour.
- Use your hands to form tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten them slightly with your hand or the bottom of a glass.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are firm but the centers are still soft. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- If desired, dust with powdered sugar before serving for an extra festive touch!
These soft, chewy cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone. Enjoy the wonderful flavors and the love in each bite!
