- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar for icing
- 1-2 tablespoons almond milk for icing

Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine melted coconut oil, brown sugar, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until a dough forms.
