Sift together the dry ingredients and stir them into the wet ingredients to make a soft, smooth dough, adding more flour if dough is too sticky. Knead the dough three times on a lightly floured board.

GLAZED GINGERSNAPS

Steps:

• Microwave the coconut oil in a large microwave-safe bowl until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the granulated sugar and molasses. The mixture should be mostly smooth; if it?s not, return to the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and whisk again to combine. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Whisk the flour, pie spice, ginger, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the flour mixture into the coconut oil mixture until smooth, switching to a rubber spatula when the dough becomes too stiff to whisk (it will seem dry at first, but will come together).
• Scrape the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap and roll into an 8- to 9-inch-long log. Wrap in the plastic wrap. Press the sides with a ruler to square off the log. Refrigerate, re-pressing the squared sides after about 20 minutes, until the dough is firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
