Looking for a healthy, and festive dessert for this holiday season? These cookies are perfect for you! Not only are they delicious, but they’re grain-free, paleo-friendly, vegan, and refined sugar-free. I like decorating mine with dried fruits and oat flakes, but you could decorate with icing if you’d like the more traditional look!
