I love all things spicy – by spicy I mean cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger spices that are desserty. Enter Ginger Snap cookies – Yum. Trouble is lately I’ve found that I need to eat less gluten. Double bonus for me I found this recipe on NOW Health Group. They are good too, so I guess that’s a triple bonus!
