The Coziest Cookies You'll Ever Bake
Picture this: soft, chewy cookies with just the right amount of spice, a caramel-like sweetness from molasses, and a subtle crunch of sugar on top.

Why We Love These Cookies (And You Will Too)
These ginger molasses cookies are made with simple, wholesome ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.

The Health Benefits of These Ingredients
Baking cookies is fun, but knowing they’re doing something good for your body? That’s next-level. Here’s why these cookies are more than just a tasty treat:
- Almond Flour: A nutrient-packed alternative to traditional flour, almond flour is loaded with healthy fats, protein, and vitamin E to nourish your skin and body.
- Oat Flour: Made from heart-healthy oats, it’s full of fiber to keep you satisfied and support digestion.
- Coconut Sugar: A natural sweetener with a lower glycemic index, coconut sugar provides that rich, caramel-like flavor without spiking your blood sugar.
- Spices (Ginger, Cinnamon, Nutmeg): These warming spices aren’t just for flavor they’re anti-inflammatory, promote circulation, and bring all the cozy vibes your body craves. Plus, ginger's bitter compounds, such as gingerols and shogaols, stimulate digestive enzymes and bile production, helping to improve nutrient absorption and soothe digestive discomfort.
- Molasses: This underrated sweetener is packed with minerals like iron and magnesium. It’s like a multivitamin disguised as dessert.
- Just Thrive Probiotic: These spore-based probiotics survive baking temps, making these cookies gut-friendly without breaking a sweat (or a spore). A happy gut means better digestion, stronger immunity, and more energy.
