Ingredients

  • Cookies:
  • 2 1/2 cups gluten-free flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, or more as needed
  • 1/2 cup yacon syrup
  • Icing:
  • 1/4 cup yacon syrup
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons melted dark chocolate (85% cacao)

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 340 degrees F (170 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl. Combine coconut oil and yacon syrup in a separate bowl. Add oil mixture to dry ingredients and mix until dough forms.
  • Roll dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use Halloween-themed cookie cutters to cut out cookies; place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  • While cookies bake, combine yacon syrup and melted chocolate.
  • Remove cookies from oven and apply icing while still hot.
