Paleo Molasses-Free Gingerbread Skillet

Wow… happy DECEMBER! Can you believe it!? Seriously November FLEW by. But hey, time flies when you’re having fun.  From taking on BGC full-time, starting work with Freedom Bar, fun Thanksgiving festivities with my family, lots of recipe testing (most noteworthy – this paleo gingerbread cookie skillet) and everything in between, I definitely had a lot of fun. There was a lot of work, but also a lot of FUN.

That’s the most amazing thing since going full-time entrepreneur and embracing it for all that it is this past month – it’s been hard work, but it’s been incredibly fun. It’s made me realize that this is TRULY what I’m meant to do. Because when you find the right path for you, work starts making you insanely happy and you get excited to do it every day. I feel beyond blessed and grateful after my first month of the #girlboss life down.

Okay, now onto this paleo gingerbread cookie skillet. One of the ways I keep myself sane working long days for myself is switching up what I do. I break up my days between writing, content curation, business calls, holistic health studying and recipe testing. This was one of those times a few days ago where I had put time aside to recipe test but had no clue what to make… but then it just hit me and I was like OK YUP paleo gingerbread cookie skillet is going DOWN.

But you see I had never made a cookie skillet before so I was a tad bit nervous that it would crash and burn and although I get it’s called recipe “testing” for a reason, I just hate when things don’t turn out. So I crossed my fingers and send good vibes into the universe and let me tell ya – it WORKED.

Because this paleo gingerbread cookie skillet is probably one of the best things I have ever made in my entire life and I just can’t wait for ya’ll to experience it. Topped with honey coated pecans, extra honey drizzle and coyo coconut yogurt? GIMME. Seriously, don’t even plan on sharing this.

This is the skillet I use and it works wonders! Also, side note, this recipe is molasses free for any of my readers that do SCD out there! 

Happy holidays and happppyyyy baking!!!
