Instrucciones para la impresión en alta definición
- Precalienta el horno a 180 °C (350 °F). Cubre una bandeja grande para hornear con papel pergamino. Rocía ligeramente el papel con aceite en aerosol. Reserva.
- Before you start, read note 6 carefully so you can decide now how much ginger you will add based on your taste buds.
- Place coconut sugar in a small bowl. Set aside for later.
- In a large mixing bowl, add oat flour, almond flour, cooled, melted coconut oil, molasses, maple syrup, ginger, baking soda, and cinnamon.
- Use a rubber spatula to stir, pressing all ingredients together until they form a consistent, soft, and sticky cookie dough.
- Oil your hands, grab 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball, drop the cookie dough ball in the bowl containing coconut sugar and roll to coat fully.
- Place the sugar-coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, oil the palm of your hand, and press the dough ball to flatten into a disc. The cookies will expand just a little, but the thickness you give now is basically what you get at the end. For crunchier cookies, make them flatter. For softer cookies, keep them a bit thicker.
- Repeat the steps above until you have formed 8 cookies, leaving 1 inch of space between each of the flattened cookies.
- Bake the cookies for 18-20 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until nicely golden brown and lightly cracked on the border.
- Let them cool down for 20 minutes at room temperature, on the baking sheet.
- Transfer onto a cooling rack for another hour, and they get their exact texture after they reach room temperature.

Ingredientes y sustituciones
Solo necesitas unos pocos ingredientes sencillos para preparar esta receta. Aquí te explicamos cómo elegirlos y sustituirlos.
- Harina de avena – This ingredient provides structure to the cookies. It gives them a lovely texture and works as a solid gluten-free base. You can make it easily at home by blending rolled oats into a fine powder.
- Harina de almendra – This gives the cookies a delicate, slightly chewy quality that almond flour is known for. You can also use other nut or seed flours like sesame, cashew, or sunflower seed flour in the same amount. The cookies won’t have the same chew if you use more oat flour, and they can get a little drier.
- Aceite de coco derretido – This is the primary fat in the recipe. It gives the cookies a wonderful, classic gingersnap crunch as they cool. Plant-based butter also works well, as both of these fats solidify when chilled to create that desired texture. Other oils like mild olive oil are fine, but the crunch won’t be as pronounced.
- Melaza – This ingredient is the key to the classic gingersnap flavor. It provides a deep, rich, and slightly smoky taste and a bit of color. For a lighter flavor, you can simply use more maple syrup.
- Jarabe de arce – This is a natural sweetener that also adds moisture to the cookie dough. Agave syrup or coconut nectar also work as liquid sweeteners in this recipe.
- Canela y jengibre – These spices create the warm, inviting flavor of gingersnap cookies. The ginger is the star of the show, and I love that you can adjust the amount to create a flavor that’s perfect for you, from mild to intensely spicy.
- Bicarbonato de sodio – This is the leavening agent that helps the cookies rise and gives them a tender crumb.
- Azúcar de coco – Rolling the cookie dough in this sugar before baking creates a beautifully crunchy exterior and adds a nice sweetness. It gives the cookies that classic “crackled” look on the outside. Date sugar or brown sugar are also great options.

Let me share a few more tips for perfect gingersnap cookies.
- Adjust the Ginger – The ginger flavor is entirely up to you! I recommend tasting the raw batter to adjust the amount of ground ginger to your preference. If you prefer a mild ginger taste, one teaspoon might be enough. If you love a spicy kick, like me, you might want to add up to two teaspoons.
- Don’t Skip the Roll – Don’t skip the step of rolling the cookie dough in coconut sugar before baking. This simple step is key to creating that wonderful crunchy texture you expect from a classic gingersnap cookie.
- Keep Them Crunchy – It’s important to let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them. They are still soft when they come out of the oven. Letting them sit and cool allows them to finish setting up and develop their final crunchy texture.
- Enfriar la masa – While this recipe doesn’t call for it, chilling the dough for 20-30 minutes can help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven. It also allows the flours to fully hydrate, which can improve the final texture.
- Achieve the Crackle – To get that classic crackled look, be sure to roll the dough balls in the coconut sugar generously. Pressing the cookies into a disc before baking also helps create a wider surface area for the sugar to crack.
- Horneado a la perfección – When the cookies are done, the edges will be a lovely golden brown and the centers will look dry. You can also look for light cracks on the borders, which is another great sign of a finished gingersnap.

¡Gracias!
I can’t imagine how good these cookies really are. I baked them yesterday and when I went to wash the pan I melted the coconut oil in, i realized I hadn’t added it. They still came out delicious crisp on the out side chewy on the inside. Flavor spot on. In fact so good they are gone and my husband is requesting more
¡Muchas gracias!
Omg, I can’t imagine how good these cookies really are. I totally forgot the coconut oil(just went to wash the pan I heated in) and they still turned out great. Nice and crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside
¡Muchas gracias!
These commies taste delicious. But they are too flat. I tried the recipe twice. The second time I left them in ball’s. Do you have any suggestions?
They are not suppose to raise much, gingersnap are flat, that’s why they crisp as well. The flatness depends on how much you press them. Barely flatten the cookie dough ball if you like them thick, not flat but they won’t crisp.
Just whipped these up really quick and they are SO yummy! So simple and easy to make.
Thank you so much for tying these cookies! Happy holidays.
this look great. I’m more of a molasses than a maple syrup person. Do you think i could increase the molasses and decrease the maple syrup? thanks.
I suppose it should work, I am not sure how it impact the crunch of the cookies as molasse as more moisture
