Ingredients

  • 112 grams coconut flour (1 cup)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 10 grams baking powder (2 tsp)
  • 108 grams brown sweetener of choice (9 TBS) I use brown monkfruit sweetener
  • 1 TBS ground ginger
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 3 large room temperature eggs
  • 1/4 cup oil of choice I use grapeseed oil
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 tsp keto maple syrup or maple extract I use Choczero keto maple syrup

Glaze

  • 128 grams powdered sweetener (1 cup) I use powdered monkfruit/allulose blend
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 TBS milk of choice I prefer coconut milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8 x 8-inch cake pan with parchment paper and allow the paper to hang over the sides for easy removal
  • Sift the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl until there are no lumps. Stir in the eggs, oil, melted butter and maple syrup until a smooth dough is formed
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl and shape the dough into a ball. Massage the ball in hands to make sure of the texture. The texture should be smooth and hold it shape well
  • Place the dough into the prepared cake pan and press it evenly throughout the pan. Place in preheated oven. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and a tester comes out clean
  • Remove from the oven. Cool in pan at least 20 minutes to firm up. Grasp overhanging paper and remove the gingerbread from the pan. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool completely before slicing and glazing

Glaze

  • Combine all the glaze ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk together until a thick but pourable mixture forms. Cut gingerbread into desired size bars and spoon the desired amount of glaze over each bar
  • Allow the glazed bars to sit at least 15 minutes so the glaze can firm up. Eat immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days
