- Beat in the molasses and egg until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
- Place the balls on ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
