Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and sugar together to combine. Create a well in the center for the wet ingredients. Crack the egg and measure out the remaining wet ingredients into the well. Stir slowly, incorporating more and more dry ingredients into the wet until just stirred.
- Scoop onto prepared baking sheets using a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop. Wet your fingers and create indents in each cookie, as if you were creating thumbprint cookies. Set aside.
- For the streusel: stir butter, flour, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon together until crumbly. Sprinkle over each cookie, to fill up the indentation.
- Bake 8-10 minutes or until the bottoms are lightly golden and the cookies appear dull and no longer shiny. Cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to cooling racks.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve. Store in airtight containers at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Notes
- *Roast sweet potatoes whole at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until very tender. Cool completely, peel and mash. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
