1 cup almond butter, unsalted
1 tablespoon almond butter, unsalted
1 medium raw egg whole
1 teaspoon ginger, ground
1 slice – 1" diameter ginger root, raw
1 tablespoon maple flavored syrup by lakanto
4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
⅛ teaspoon cloves, ground
⅛ teaspoon salt, sea salt
½ cup 100% pure erythritol by now
¾ cup almond milk
¼ teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon spices nutmeg ground

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a shallow oven tray with baking paper. Add 1 cup of almond butter, egg, 1 teaspoon of ginger, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, ½ cup of erythritol, cloves, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla to a food processor and blend until a dough forms.
Divide the mixture evenly into 14 cookie shapes and arrange across the lined oven tray. These should be around ½ inch thick.
Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown then leave to cool completely and firm.
Whilst the cookies are cooling you can prepare the ginger toffee sauce. Add the almond milk, fresh ginger, 1 tablespoon of almond butter, remaining erythritol and lakanto syrup to a small pan. Bring to a rolling boil for a minute, then reduce to a simmer. Continue to cook and stir until you have a thickened toffee sauce.
To prepare the cream, add the whipping cream to the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Add the remaining cinnamon and vanilla and whisk until soft peaks form.
To assemble the trifle, crumble 4 cookies into the base of a large bowl or serving dish. Top with 1/3 of the whipped cream then 1/3 of the toffee sauce.
Repeat the same for the next layer, then again for the third layer. Once you have added the final layer of cream, crumble the remaining two cookies over the top to serve.
