Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, molasses, and brown sugar. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, you can place it in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to firm up slightly.
-
Place the granulated sugar in a small bowl. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls, then gently roll each ball in the sugar until coated.
-
Arrange the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand.
-
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
-
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
