Peanut Butter Gingerbread Chocolate Chunk Cookies

peanut butter – or Sunbutter, almond butter, or cashew butter (110g)

powdered ginger – less if you only want a slight gingerbread flavor

Sucanat – You can sub regular brown sugar; it just won’t be nearly as gingerbread-y (45g)

stevia or 1 extra tbsp of the sucanat or sugar

baking soda

flour (spelt, white, ww pastry, and Bob’s gf all-purpose all work) (24g)

tiny pinch of salt if desired (I add 1/16 tsp and use Whole Foods peanut butter, which is salted)
