Is the dough crumbly?

WOW! I did not expect these to be that amazing but they are! Better than any full fat ginger bread cookies I've had. I used blackstrap molasses because I love the strong flavor, and they turned out perfect! I also used almond milk instead of orange juice, and it worked out great. I am so impressed. Thanks for this fabulous and EASY recipe!

I am still surprised how good these are for such few ingredients and no added fat. I doubled the amount of ginger and they came out great! I had to add a bit more molasses to the dough to get it to hold together, but other than that, what a neat recipe. Thanks!

These are simply amazing. I doubled the amount of ginger, added 1/4 t ground cloves, and used 100% spelt flour. I omitted the brown sugar and added 1/2 t stevia powder to boost the natural sweetness of the molasses and orange juice. I can not believe how good these taste!<br/>Thanks so much for posting this recipe.
