Breakfast soft ginger cookies with apple cream cheese

1/3 cup                                                               Room temperature butter
2 1/2 tablespoons                                             Peanut butter
2 1/2 tablespoons                                             Oil  
3/4 cup                                                               Maple syrup    
1/2 cup                                                               Oatmeal
1/2 cup                                                               Almond meal
1/4 cup                                                               Buckwheat 
3/4 cup                                                               Whole wheat flour
1/4 cup                                                               Tapioca flour
1/4 cup                                                               Milk of choice
1 teaspoon                                                         Baking soda
2 teaspoons                                                       Cinnamon
2 teaspoons                                                       Ginger 
1/4 teaspoon                                                     Clove
1/4 teaspoon.                                                    Turmeric 
A few grind of black pepper. 

Directions 

Mix the 1/3 cup of butter with the 2 1/2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 2 1/2 tablespoons of oil and 3/4 cup of maple syrup.

Add 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 1/2 cup of almond meal, 1/4 cup of buckwheat flour and mix to combine.  Add 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour,  1/4 cup of tapioca flour and mix to combine.

Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, 2 teaspoons of ginger, 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric and a few grind of black pepper.

Mix, separate in 2, put in 2 plastic bags, shape in discs and chill in the fridge for 3 hours or in the freezer for about 1 hour.  

Preheat the oven at 350°F. (175°C.).  Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. 

Remove 1 disc of dough from fridge or freezer.  Flour work surface, hands and rolling pin and reflour as needed.  Roll down to 1/4 inch, cut out with a 1 inch round (I used a vitamin water bottle) dipping in water every 3 or 4 cut to prevent sticking. 

Place 1 inch apart on baking sheet.  Reroll dough scraps until all the dough is used. ( no waste, yeah! )

Bake 7 minutes or until it's cooked. Cool 5 minutes on the sheet, then flip on a plate and cool completely before storing.  (I don't have a cooling rack.)
