Ingredients

Big Bowl 1:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (can replace with 1 cup chickpea flour and 1/2 cup white rice flour)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Smaller (but not tiny) Bowl 2:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (I’ve also used European-style cultured vegan butter)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, ginger, cardamom, salt, allspice, and black pepper; stir with a whisk.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand-held mixer on low speed just until combined. Mix in the egg and vanilla until incorporated.
  4. Add all of the butter mixture to the flour mixture and mix until incorporated.
  5. Roll into 1.5-2 tbsp balls - slightly taller instead of perfectly round - and place on two cookie sheets.
  6. Bake for 8-9 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. The cookies will appear underdone and very soft. Cool on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
