Keto-friendly Halloween Cookies

Fall is now upon us, a season lasting the whole year, with absent or shorter summers, year after year.

Cinnamon, other warming spices, and root vegetables will soon be in season. These are great ingredients to make Halloween treats.

I dare you to give this to the "trick-or-treaters" instead of health-wrecking candies. These are delicious and easy to make. They will be loved by children and grown-ups!
