Coconut Sugar Snickerdoodle Cookies {Paleo}

I'm posting this recipe today for my own selfish reasons.
Mainly because I love these cookies and I don't want to lose the recipe!

Like many of you I've been trying to eat healthy for the new year, but I also need a
sweet treat every now and then. Like every day :)



Coconut sugar snickerdoodle cookies are grain-free, dairy-free, Paleo and delicious!
They are made with almond flour, coconut sugar, coconut oil, one egg and just a few
other pantry ingredients. I've made them twice this month and I'm sure I'll be making
them again soon!

After the cookies cool I place them in the freezer in an air-tight container and then pop
one in my lunch bag for work. They are the perfect ending to a healthy lunch!
