These Cinnamony bites are great for when you need a lightly sweet snack. Shortbread like cookie bars topped with cinnamon and sugar. The bars need just 1 Bowl and come together within minutes. I added some candied ginger to the dough which you can omit if you like. 

Bake, slice and done. You can bake the dough into cookies as well. Roll in cinnamon sugar, flatten and bake. Glutenfree and no oil options in the Recipe notes. Lets make these melt in your mouth burst of cinnamon bars.

The dough can feel slightly dry but when you mix with your hands, it softens and makes a more cohesive dough. Then transfer to the pan and press evenly. Use a sprinkle of water to help if needed. For thicker bars, use a loaf pan.

    Hot Damn. These were a perfect treat to have around to brighten up these otherwise cold and dull days. i love that they are just lightly sweet. Not too heavy a treat too.

    If it is glutenfree, I will try it out. I can eat a regular cookie now and then, but my kids are totally gluten intolerant.

    I just loved this recipe. I am surely going to try this in bulk and store them in jars so that it stays fresh and can be served whenever there are some unexpected guests at home.

    Snickerdoodles are one of my favorite cookies EVER. I would dig into them any time of the year! Yeah, the holidays are over, but the cinnamon sugar adoration definitely isn’t. I would love to try recreating this batch as cookies!

    These bars were delicious. I made them Gf and oil free using the extra almond flour/flour substitution. They were a bit dense because of the almond flour, but oh so delicious.
