These gingerbread men are made healthier thanks to whole-wheat flour and less sugar than the classic recipe. Plus, you’re getting the benefits of ginger, cloves, and nutmeg—spices that could help boost your immune system.

Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
Melt the coconut oil in the microwave, and let it cool. In a large bowl, combine the oil and the other wet ingredients.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and stir until just combined.
Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap on your counter, and put the dough in the middle. Flatten it out into a rectangle, about 1" thick. Cover with more plastic wrap, and place in the fridge to chill for 1 hour or longer.
Preheat your oven to 325°. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Take your dough out of the fridge and keeping it in the plastic wrap, roll it until it’s ⅛” thick. Dust your cookie cutter with some flour and create your gingerbread men. Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 1/2” apart.
Bake your cookies for 8 minutes. Let them cool for 5 minutes, and then move them off the baking sheet to finish cooling down. Enjoy.
