Gluten free vegan gingerbread cookies

Tonight was a night of sweet tooth heaven. It also happens to be the night before the night before Xmas, which is means that baking and eating Xmas cookies is completely allowed. I love gingerbread. Whether they are crunchy, or soft and chewy, gingerbread has always been my jam. My boyfriends family is gluten free, so recently I've been experimenting with gluten free baking and cooking. What I've learned...is there's lots to learn about gluten free! But...these turned out really good;)

1/4 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup vegan butter(earth balance)
1/2 cup coconut sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3/4 tsp cinnamon
3/4 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp cloves
2 tbsp flax with 1/2 cup water
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup sorghum flour
1 cup quinoa flour
1/2 cup arrowroot flour

Mix first 9 ingredients in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Stir in flax mixture. Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl, then combine slowly into the first mixture. Stir well until a gooey dough forms. Place onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 325 for 10-12 minutes. Enjoy!
