yummy paleo snickerdoodles

hey y'all.

sorry for the lack of posts lately..life is busy...i am sure you understand.

but really i am just struggling with the winter doldrums,

and satan

i know that sounds dramatic, but it's true. i believe when we draw very near to God, our hearts become very vulnerable to the enemy.

so, i've been laying low. praying. talking to God. trying each day to decide to obey Him. it should be easy, with all He's given us.

but sometimes it isn't.

pray for me, would you?

and i will thank you for it in Jesus' name...

(and with some yummy snickerdoodle cookies :-))

::recipe slightly modified from urbanposer::

for approx 16 cookies, you will need:

2 cups finely ground almonds (homemade or store bought "flour")

1/4 to 1/2 tsp salt, depending on how much you dig salt

1 tsp baking soda

4 tbsp soft coconut oil

1/4 cup raw honey

1 tsp pure vanilla

1 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon, plus 1 more tsp for rolling

2 tbsp organic sugar or coconut crystals for rolling

heat oven to 350 degrees and line a pan with parchment

mix all ingredients through first 1 tbsp cinnamon together in a bowl with your hands. this will be messy, but stangely satisfying. lick all the bits off your fingers (wash your hands) and proceed.

scoop 1 tbsp balls, roll in cinnamon sugar mixture and place a few inches apart on parchment lined pan. press each ball down with the bottom of a flat glass...they stick so either wet the glass in between cookies or dip bottom of glass into leftover cinnamon sugar mixture between cookies...either way works.

bake anywhere from 8-10 min. do not over bake. let cool on pan about 10 min and enjoy.
