Ingredients

Instructions

  • First, preheat 350.
  • Secondly, grease cookie sheets.
  • Thirdly, cream butter.
    3/4 cup softened butter
  • Next, add monk fruit sugar and yacon syrup to the creamed butter and blend until combined.
  • Additionally, scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add egg and blend until thoroughly combined.
    1 whole egg
  • In a separate bowl, combine cassava flour, cinnamon, ginger, clove, salt, baking powder and mix together.
    1 1/2 cup cassava flour, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp clove, 1/4 tsp salt, 2 tsp baking powder
  • Add 1/2 the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until all the flour has been incorporated.
  • Scrape down sides and combine the remaining flour mixture to the butter mixture and combine.
  • Grease a spatula.
  • Using the spatula scrape down the sides and press the dough into a ball.
  • Wrap cookie dough up in a piece of plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  • Remove cookie dough from the fridge.
  • Next, lay down two sheets of plastic wrap, side by side and overlapping.
  • Then lay down the cookie dough on top of the plastic.
  • Lay down two more sheets side by side of overlapping plastic wrap on top of the cookie dough.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough.
  • Carefully remove the top layer of plastic.
  • Using whatever cookie cutter you like, press it into the dough and cut out cookies.
  • Take the remaining dough and continue to roll out and cut out until all the dough is gone.
  • Pick up cut out cookies and place on greased cookie sheets.

Soft Cookies

  • Bake cookies 8- 10 minutes for soft cookies or until lightly browned.

Crispy Cookies

  • Bake 12 - 18 minutes for crispy cookies and darker colored cookies.

Chef's Note

  • Naturally, soft or crispy cookies will also depend on the thickness of the cookies. Not to mention, the thinner and longer cooked cookies will be crispy. Needless to say, thicker and short cooking time will make soft cookies. These cookies are good either way. I like a mixture of soft and crispy. Crispy cookies are good for dunking into coffee or hot chocolate.
  • This makes approximately 40 medium-sized cookies and it makes approximately 80 small cookies.
