Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 48 servings

  • 2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour

  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided

  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 ½ tablespoons molasses

  • 2 ½ tablespoons honey

  • ½ cup turbinado sugar (such as Sugar in the Raw®)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. Combine flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.

  3. Beat white sugar, butter, and egg together in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add molasses and honey and beat for 1 minute. Slowly beat in flour mixture to combine.

  4. Combine turbinado sugar and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon in a shallow bowl.

  5. Roll dough into balls using a rounded teaspoon. Roll each in cinnamon-sugar mixture and place on the prepared baking sheets.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 10 minutes. Cool for 1 minute, then transfer to wire racks to finish cooling.
